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, baby
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

Now hush little baby don't you cry 
Every thing's gonna be all right 
Stiffin' that upper lip 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 fear how we feel inside, it may seem a little crazy 
Pretty baby but I promise, mama'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 wanna cry 
Cuz you're scared 
I ain't there, 
No more cryin' 
Wipe them tears 

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word Sorry seems to be the hardest word
