VERSE one:
Can't stand this silence any more
I'm dying
The words no sooner leave my lips
I'm out of your life
in the beat
of a heart
It was selfish
it was cruel
undeniably uncool
Have your way with me
Slap me twice across the face
once for a stolen embrace
Once more for honesty

CHORUS:
They say the truth will set you free
It's true for some but not for me
No sorry on earth is sorry enough
To win back the heart
of a woman crossed in love

VERSE two:
Call me shameless
I don't care
I love you
Desperate measures for desperate times
So much (so much) for the sway of a kiss
Darling here I am
your ever-loving man
In his darkest hour
Had I known it meant goodbye
I'd have sooner lived a lie
Than live without you girl

CHORUS:
They say the truth will set you free
It's true for some but not for me
No sorry on earth is sorry enough
To win back the heart
of a woman crossed in love

BRIDGE:
So it's over like that
pack you bags, your coat and hat
End of story

+ Before I fade away
hear me when I say
baby, I'm sorry


CHORUS:
They say the truth will set you free
It's true for some but not for me
No sorry on earth is sorry enough
To win back the heart
of a woman crossed in love

No sorry on earth
is sorry enough
To win back the heart
of a woman crossed in love

+ = these are the lyrics that are actually sung, but in the booklet, it says:

So much for naked truth
the search for endless youth
And a moment of glory
