Chorus / Description : The song How to Apologize by Brandon Heath explores the struggle of admitting mistakes and seeking forgiveness, highlighting the journey of personal growth and humility.
I can change a flat tire seven minutes give or take a few seconds
I can ride a surfboard on a wave never had any lessons
I can tell you every president by name
Sing you every single word of Purple Rain
I can drive to Arizona without checking directions
But I'm still learning how to apologize
I can take a few lines from a book turn it into a love song
I like to think that I'm a pretty good friend someone to lean on
I can tell you where to buy a good guitar
And you know I can find Orion in a stars
I can recommend a really good therapist if you ever need one
But I'm still learning how to apologize
Yeah I know that no one's perfect
And I hope you see I'm working
I don't mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I'm still learning
How to apologize
How to apologize
I can fry an egg sunny side up no breaking the yellow
I can turn on the Tennessee charm have you at hello
I can talk my way out of any fight
Drink my coffee in the middle of the night
But when I start thinking maybe you were right
I turn into jello
I'm still learning how to apologize
(Still learning how to apologize)
Yeah I know that no one's perfect
And I hope you see I'm working
I don't mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I'm still learning
How to apologize
How to apologize
I must have done it a thousand times
Still learning how to apologize
I don't know what to tell you
Cause the one thing left to say
Is nothing short of a breakthrough
So I hide it inside but my pride keeps on getting in the way
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Yeah I know that no one's perfect
And I hope you see I'm working
I don't mean to leave you hurting
Can you see that I'm still learning
How to apologize
(Sorry sorry)
How to apologize
(Sorry sorry)
I must have done it a thousand times
(Sorry)
Can you see that I'm still learning how to apologize
