英文摇滚歌曲：Miss Fortune - My Apologies

What have you been waiting for?
I'm not standing¹ in your way, but you swore,
"It's been a long time coming"
And I'm trying to refrain² from using anger
Even when you speak his name.

And I'm sorry for the things I've said,
It's just the best way that I know to not let my heart break in vain,
So I'm singin'
What would it take to make you love me?
What do you need to see?
To make you fall for me all over
And give me what I need.

We all fall down...

But who are you to say it's over?
It's my heart that you stole.
You know I've been your dearest friend.
Hell³, I've watched you growing up.

We all fall down.

I'm sorry for the things I've said,
It's just the best way that I know to not let my heart break in vain,
So I'm singin'
What would it take to make you love me?
What do you need to see?
To make you fall for me all over
And give me what I need.

And who are you to say that you've had enough?
You know I've been your dearest friend.
Hell, I've watched you growing up.

We all fall down...

But it's the way that you get up that separates you from the rest
So stop giving in, and start living your life.
And start speaking out.
For something more til' you have it.

And I'm sorry for the things I've said,
It's just the best way that I know to not let my heart break in vain,
So I'm singin'
What would it take to make you love me?
What do you need to see?
To make you fall for me all over
And give me what I need.

And who are you to say that you've had enough?
You know I've been your dearest friend.
Hell, I've watched you growing up.

We all fall down...
