Analysis of I'm Sorry, I Love You
I'M SORRY, I LOVE YOU
I fell into a trap in the wilderness.
Broke my bones and was full of bruises.
Why didn't I notice you didn't care?
I often cry out of despair and you didn't care.
I sigh in the wilderness hoping you'd see my eyes twinkling.
You were my solace in the misery, my moon in the dark.
I'm sorry, I love you. Is loving you that bad?
I love you as much as I love the moon and the stars.
Stuck in the middle of moving forward;
To forget you, even if it will cause my grief.
I cry in the middle of the night, talking to the stars that shine so bright.
"Will you at least care for me?" I asked.
I'm still at the restaurant when you thought I was done.
I'm still sitting in the corner and waiting for you to come back.
You'll never gonna lose me, but I already lost you.
I'm sorry, I love you. But I'm not really sorry for loving you.
