What I gotta do to make you want me
What have I gotta to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over baby
And sorry seems to be the hardest word

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd

It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night

I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby,
But I promise momma's gon' be alright

I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cuz you're scared, I ain't there?
No more crying, wipe them tears, No more crying, wipe them tears

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

Sorry seems to be the hardest word
