I’m Sorry
(T. & M.: Helge Brink)
1.
Everytime I sit and watch the news
I get the awful worldsick blues.
When I see missiles flyin’
Children cryin’
People dyin’
Presidents pretend that they keep tryin’
To stop it all.
Chorus:
Then I feel sorry
To see the world go to pieces
Sorry to hear that hunger increases
And I have no idea what I can do about it all –
I’m so sorry.
2.
When I listen to the radio
It is just the same, you know.
I hear of poor folks cheated,
Women mistreated
Efforts in vain
And a world full of pain as I am sayin’
Just stop it all
Chorus:
I feel so sorry ...
3.
Everywhere I see this situation.
It drives me into desperation.
Destruction
And corruption,
There is obsession,
People talk of ending all aggression,
But they don’t really try -
Chorus:
I feel so sorry
To see the world go to pieces
Sorry to hear that hunger increases.
But then again I hope that the human nation
Will find a way to our salvation -
Or else we’ll die.
Chorus:
And I’d be sorry.
To see the world go to pieces,
Sorry to hear that hunger increases.
How I wish someone knew what I could do about it all –
I’m so sorry – I’m sorry.
