Analysis of I should apologize



I should apologize for falling for you
Let me assure you it was not apart of my plan

I should apologize for hearing your voice
And seeing your eyes
And feeling your body warmth against mine
Every night since the day I met you

I should apologize for smiling to big and feeling to much
And falling too hard
Too fast
Too much it was a very long decent month spent
But not wasted
Falling for you
But the initial trip
Was hours after we met

I should apologize for being too eager
For talking to much
For missing you severely
For fighting my love for you

I should apologize for falling in love with you
And for annoying you

I should apologize for the rest of my life
For falling for you

So I will apologize every morning
And every night for the rest of forever

My head on your chest
I will say I'm not sorry
MY hand in yours
I will say I'm not sorry
My body entwined with yours
I will say I don't apologize
I don't intend to apologize
I will never apologize for giving you my heart
And falling in love with you.
