Im sorry about the man on the street with no place to sleep,
Beggin for small change and something to eat,
And Im sorry about the people who walk by with shame in their eyes,
And still theyre too greedy to spare one dime.
Im sorry about the people who think that they deserve more than others,
That their life is worth more than others,
Im sorry for the kids looking for someone to help them
And not just to yell at them.
And Im sorry that life isnt always what we ask for
And Im sorry that some always have less an some have more,
Im sorry about the feelings I hurt in you,
But feelings just change.
Refrain:
And in the end (oh, Im sorry)
Why cant it just be the way that we want it to be
In the end (oh, Im sorry)
Why cant we all stand up and all hold hands
(Im sorry)
Why cant it just be the way that we want it to be
In the end (oh, Im sorry)
Im sorry about the kids whose parents have gone
And now we tell them, find your own way and just hold on,
Im sorry about these endless discussions about war,
Skin color, sex, religion and more,
Im sorry about the way we treat each other sometimes,
Or is it too much to ask that we help people and be kind?
Sorry that the weathers not always right
We deserve bright sunshine in our souls and our lives
Sorry that life isnt always what we ask for
And Im sorry that some always have less an some have more,
Im sorry about the feelings I hurt in you,
But feelings just change.
