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 Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
Sometimes things refuse
To go the way we planned
Oh Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There will be a day
That you will understand
You will understand
After a while you may forget
But just in case the memories cross your mind
You couldnt know this when I left
Under the fire of your angry eyes
I never wanted to say goodbye
So Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
Sometimes things refuse
To go the way we planned
Oh Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There will be a day
That you will understand
You will understand
Yeah, stop telling em to pump the bass up
Tried to call home but nobody could wait up
Switch your time zones cant pick the pace up
I just passed out by the time you wake up
Best things come to those who wait
And its bound to get rough on any road you take
But dont you ever have a doubt and make no mistake
I cant wait to come back when Im going away
So Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There are things we have to do that we cant stand
Oh Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There will be a day that you will understand
Oh Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There are things we have to do that we cant stand
Oh Ill be sorry for now
That I couldnt be around
There will be a day that you will understand
You will understand
You will understand
You will understand
