You Don't Have To Say You're Sorry

You don't have to say you're sorry

We all make mistakes, I've made my share, oh

You don't have to say you're sorry

I don't need those words to know you care

Explanations aren't required even though you think you should

I don't need to know the reasons, No, not even if they're good

You don't have to say you're sorry, But I sure do wish you would



You don't have to say you're sorry

and that's a silly game that children play, oh

You don't have to say you're sorry, no

No, you shouldn't have to live that way



You don't have to say you're sorry

Cause we're both too old it's true

Well they say when you love someone, forgiveness is the rule

You don't have to say you're sorry, But I sure do wish you would



Explanations aren't required, even though you think you should

I don't need to know your reasons

No, not even if they're good

You don't have to say you're sorry

But I sure do wish you would, I wish you would
