What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over

And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation

And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over

Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
What do I do to make you love me

What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
What have I got to do

What have I got to do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word


Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, i told ya

Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside

It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby,
But i promise momma's gon' be alright
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh

I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cuz you're scared, I ain't there?
Daddy's with you in your prayers

No more crying, wipe them tears, wipe them tears,
wipe them tears


It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd

It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me

That sorry seems to be the hardest word
