Sorry

Story Behind The Song

I wrote this tune with lyrical content concerning Zimbabwe and the dictator Robert Mugabe, who rules there absolutely. As I thought the tune was quite uplifting I decided to write some more lyrics and change the feel of the tune, hence this.

Lyrics

Been walking for miles while the world is in bed
Mass confusion in my mind 'cos I need to speak with you
Darkness surrounds all the thoughts in my head
Wondering if I've said too much and I need to say sorry to you

And when I think of what I'm going to say the words go out of my mind
And I fool myself you'll understand me and not be unkind

I'm sorry that I hurt you I'm sorry for the things that I've done
If I didn't make you feel like you are the only one
I'm sorry if you feel betrayed I think I'd understand
If you told me you were through with me you'd found another man

Ms Scheindlin's in town and she's digging the dirt
over all the bad things that I've done
I wish the ground would open up
Be it in court or on the edge of her bed
I sense forgiveness won't be soon
I try to talk but I'm soon shut up

And while the jury's out I tell her that she means the world to me
If she leaves me now I'll never find the other half of me

I'm sorry that I hurt you I'm sorry for the things that I've done
If I didn't make you feel like you are the only one
I'm sorry if you feel betrayed I think I'd understand
If you told me you were through with me you'd found another man

I'm sorry that I hurt you I'm sorry for the things that I've done
If I didn't make you feel like you are the only one
I'm sorry if you feel betrayed I think I'd understand
If you told me you were through with me you'd found another man

Great vibe really neat verses and intro!

Really great verses and Hook

Nice flow to the verses lyrically

I I am hearing this song in and movie like "Sixteen Candles", that bass really sticks out nicely in the track!

-I like the groove
-The story is relatable
-It has a bit of a Howard Jones retro feel to it.

I get a real cool vibe , mellow......nice bass and drums

Very pop. Nice harmonies. Tells a good story in the lyrics

It reminds me of 70s soft rock, artists like England Dan and John Ford Coley, Todd Rundgren.I enjoyed the base play out at the end. With than sound of the 70s I enjoyed the modern production. Keep doing what you are doing , your sound is great!

Hook is great. Kind of has a bit of an 80's vibe (which I really love). Solid drums, they don't sound pre-recorded. If that's a patch I'd like to know what it is. Dig the bass-line closing out the song too. Yeah, overall I really really liked it. Definitely has marketability. A million romantic comedies need this song!

Very well written and well performed piece. Really good intro. Back-up vocals add a lot to it.

+ "I'm Sorry" has a nice sound with quality lead vocals
+ up-tempo groove with musically moving bass lines
+ has memorable hooks, good form, and clear sonic production
+ tune fits Adult Contemporary genre or movie track
