lyrics

Told me the way that you feel (what could I say)
You caught me off guard and so I tried to make fun
Said what you felt could be real (ain’t that the way)
Thought we were friends and could see anyone
I was wrong

So sorry (so sorry) I met you
It’s never (it’s not) easy with me when I (it’s never easy when I)
Meet someone so special (meet someone special)
But I know (I know), I’m not ready

You were walking away with your friends (one arm round you)
My words were useless and you left in distress
Not sure if I’ll see you again (what will you do)
You said we would, so we won’t I guess
What a mess

So sorry (so sorry) I met you
It’s never (it’s not) easy with me when I (it’s never easy when I)
Meet someone so special (meet someone special)
But I know (I know), I’m not ready

Well, it’s nice to be someone else
When you’re with someone else

So sorry I met you
It’s never easy with me when I
Meet someone so special
But I know I’m not ready

Oh I’m so sorry (so sorry) I met you
It’s never (it’s not) easy with me when I (it’s never easy when I)
Meet someone so special (meet someone special)
But I know (I know), I’m not ready

So sorry I met you
It’s not (it’s not) it’s never easy when I
Meet someone special
And I know (I know) I’m not ready
