AFTER ALL THESE YEARS (I’m Sorry)
WORDS and MUSIC by Bettina Johnson
Produced by David Waehner – DW Productions, Atlanta

I miss looking in your eyes
And while I can still see them whenever I want, it’s not the same
Not the way they looked when your sleepy gaze met mine
But I’ll take the blame.

I miss hearing your voice
And while I can still hear you whenever I want, it’s not the same
The way you said my name whispered in your sleep
But I’ll take the blame

I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
You can’t come back
I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
And after all these years...I’m sorry

I miss the way you feel
Oh God I can’t feel you whenever I want, this is insane
I miss running my hands up your back and into your hair
The way I felt when you touched me there

I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
You can’t come back
I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
And after all these years...I’m sorry

You’d think that after all this time (memories would fade)
Though I was the one to leave you (it wasn’t easy to do)
What part of my heart did I rip out?
What does that leave behind? (for the one who’s been true)
What reason can I find? (to explain my need for you)
What does that leave behind…for the one who replaced you?

I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
You can’t come back
I miss you, I’m sorry
I miss you he worries
No going back
You can’t come back
You can’t come back
And after all these years…
I’m sorry
