[Verse 1]
In the fury of the moment
When the words of wrath rang out
When my mind was filled with questions
And my head was filled with doubt
I can still see sadness, heartbreak
And the sorrow in your eyes
How can flowers live in darkness?
How can I apologize?

[Verse 2]
For the blackness I've created
In the world that used to shine
I have wilted all the roses
And I've spoiled all the wine
Just get out your magic pencil
And erase the cloudy sky
And just draw a picture of mе
Saying, "I apologize"

[Chorus]
Give me back
Thе words I spoke in haste
Give 'em back
For love will go to waste
Give 'em back
[Verse 3]
See the sunlight reappearing
Through the shrouds of dark and gloom
As I hear the words forgiving me
And watching flowers bloom
After time has lost that moment
And we've mended broken ties
I will still be on my knees
Saying, "I apologize"

[Chorus]
Give me back
The words I spoke in haste
Give 'em back
For love will go to waste
Give 'em back
Give me back
The words I spoke in haste
Give 'em back
For love will go to waste
Give 'em back
