Watching the wings cut through the clouds Watching the raindrops blinking red and white Thinking of you back on the ground There with a fire burning in your eyes I only halfway apologized
And I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around Sometimes things refuse to go the way we planned Oh, I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There will be a day that you will understand You will understand (woo)
You will understand
After a while, you may forget But just in case the memories cross your mind You couldn't know this when I left Under the fire of your angry eyes I never wanted to say goodbye
So I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around Sometimes things refuse to go the way we planned Oh, I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There will be a day that you will understand You will understand
Yeah, stop telling them to pump the bass up Tried to call home, but nobody could wait up Switching time zones, can't pick the pace up I just passed out by the time you wake up Best things come to those who wait And it's bound to get rough on any road you take But don't ever have a doubt and make no mistake I can't wait to come back when I'm going away
So I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There are things we have to do that we can't stand Oh, I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There will be a day that you will understand
Oh, I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There are things we have to do that we can't stand (Things we have to do that we can't stand) Oh, I'll be sorry for now that I couldn't be around There will be a day that you will understand You will understand You will understand You will understand
