Yes I’m sorry

If I had a thousand ways to say I’m sorry
I could spend a thousand years / to wash away my sins
Can You hear my prayer, and have mercy on me
When I die

Yes I’m sorry
Yes I regret all the things that I’ve done
Yes I’m guilty
(But) I don’t / want to go / to Hell

I (‘ve) failed to resist
(The) temptation of lust
(And) I’ve lost many friends
(It’s) a question of trust 
When you’re too selfish
What’s left in the end
Are your tears

Yes I’m sorry
Yes I regret all the things that I’ve done
Yes I’m guilty
(But) I don’t / want to go / to Hell

Every night I think about my mistakes
(I have) Visions of my youth in my dreams
I’d like to close my eyes but now I’m awake
I lost my innocence and I want to scream

Yes I’m sorry
Yes I regret all the things that I’ve done
Yes I’m guilty
Lord / can You see / my pain…

Yes I’m sorry
Yes I regret all these years I was wrong
Yes I’m guilty
(But) I don’t / want to go / to Hell

I don’t have a thousand ways to say I’m sorry
I can’t spend a thousand years / to wash away my sins
(But) Can You hear my prayer, and have mercy on me
When I die
