How To Apologize Songtext
von Brandon Heath

I can change a flat tire seven minutes give or take a few seconds
I can ride a surfboard on a wave, never had any lessons
I can tell you every president by name
Sing you every single word of "Purple Rain"
I can drive through Arizona without checking directions
But I′m still learning how to apologize

I could take a few lines from a book turn it into a love song
I like to think that I'm a pretty good friend, someone to lean on
I can tell you where to buy a good guitar
And you know I can find Orion in the stars (stars)
I could recommend a really good therapist if you ever need one
But I′m still learning how to apologize
Still learning how to apologize

Yeah, I know that no one's perfect
And I hope you see I'm working
I don′t mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I′m still learning
How to apologize
How to apologize


I could fry an egg sunny side up, no breaking the yellow
I could turn on the Tennessee charm, have you at hello
I could talk my way out of any fight
Drink my coffee in the middle of the night
But when I start thinking maybe you were right
I turn into jello
And I'm still learning how to apologize
Still learning how to apologize

Yeah, I know that no one′s perfect
And I hope you see I'm working
I don′t mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I'm still learning
How to apologize
How to apologize
I must have done it a thousand times
Still learning how to apologize

I don′t know what to tell you
'Cause the one thing left to say
Is nothing short of a breakthrough
So I hide it inside 'cause my pride keeps on getting in the way
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry


Yeah, I know that no one′s perfect
And I hope you see I′m working
I don't mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I′m still learning
How to apologize
(Sorry, sorry)
How to apologize
(Sorry, sorry)
I must have done it a thousand times
(Sorry)
Can you see that I'm still learning
How to apologize
