Lyrics I Apologize (Single Version) - Anita Baker

Operator
Get my baby on the line
′Cause just the other night
We had a horrible fight
I admit that I, I was out of control
But I still love my man
With my body and soul
When the road gets rough
You say things you should not say
I never meant to treat my baby that way
I apologize (Believe me I do)
Oh, believe me I do
I apologize (Honest and true)
Oh, honest and true
Because I know I was wrong
And so I'll sing you this song
And I′m tryna get through
And make it up to you, yes
Operator
It was like a bad dream
And Lord you should have heard
The way he shouted and the way that I screamed
I regret it 'cause I was unfair
I took it all out on him
Just because he was there
When the road gets rough
You say things you should not say
I never meant to treat my daddy that way
I apologize (Believe me I do)
Oh, believe me I do
I apologize (Honest and true)
Oh, honest and true
Because I knew I was wrong
So I'll sing you my song
And I′m gonna get through, yeah
And make it up to you
I apologize for I was unkind
And I wish that I could go back in time
Erase the good-byes
And rewrite my life
But come rain or come shine
I′m gonna do it right this time
I apologize
(Believe me I do)
(Honest and true)
Oh, baby I do
Because I know I was wrong
That's why I′m singing my my my song
Yeah, yeah, yes
I apologize, oh yes (Believe me I do)
I apologize, oh yes, oh yes (Honest and true)
Because I know I was wrong
And so I sing you this song
And I wanna get, I gotta get
I need to get through to you, yeah, yeah
(Believe me I do)
Oh listen, oh baby (Honest and true)
I'm talking to you right now, oh, I′m talking to you
(I was wrong, I sing you this song)
Listen to me right now
Singing it to you right now, I was wrong
