Sorry, so sorry
Baby, do-wow-wow
So, baby, do-wow-wow

Just got my sights from the lights from the party
And was surprised by the things that now I see
That thing with us that we had when we started
Has somehow slipped away and turned to memories
I stole a kiss in the dark and I'm not sorry
'Cause it opened up my eyes so I could see
That somehow make love for us was never pleasing
So now it's you for you and always me for me

So sorry to say
That we can't go all this way
Sorry to say
Baby, goodbye
So sorry to say
We had some fun in our own way
I've got to leave here
'Cause there's no peace in sight

You got my mind from the start
As you walked into my heart, girl
You made me feel a different kind of thing (Yes!)
Now my heart's like a bass drum
Beat out a rhythm, you know there was one
The music played while I danced along
(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boo, cha-cha!)
So don't ask me why (Why!)
Have the good times passed us by
I don't want to have to tell you
(Don't make me tell you)
That I'm sick and tired of that same old lullaby

So sorry to say
That we can't go all this way
Sorry to say
Baby, goodbye
So sorry to say
We had some fun in our own way
I've got to leave here
'Cause there's no peace in sight

Sorry to say this is goodbye
Sorry to say goodbye
Sorry to say this is so long
Sorry to say, so long
Sorry to say, goodbye

So good from the start
As you walked into my heart
That long, sorry to say, goodbye

Sorry, so sorry
Can't you see I'm sorry, bye-bye!

That's it, huh, huh, I quit, huh!
(Sorry to say, sorry to say)
That's it, huh, huh, I quit, huh!
(Sorry to say, sorry to say)
That's it, huh, huh, I quit, huh!
(Sorry to say, sorry to say)
That's it, huh, huh, I quit, huh!
(Sorry to say, sorry to say...)

Commodores

Commodores are an American funk/soul band, which was at its peak in the late 1970s through the mid 1980s. The members of the group met as mostly freshmen at Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) in 1968, and signed with Motown in November 1972, having first caught the public eye opening for The Jackson 5 while on tour.
