Ruben Studdard Sorry
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008Want a good relationship song? Then chances are good you’ll hit the jackpot if you try Ruben Studdard. The big winner of the 2003 American Idol contest has a smooth voice conducive to his songs of choice, most of which invariably involve love or relationships in one way or another.
A good example is his song Sorry 2004, released in 2003 on his Soulful album. He spends the entire song (and the video, for that matter) lamenting his screw ups during a relationship he had with his main squeeze. He asks for forgiveness for his actions over the past year and promises to spend the next year making up for his stupid mistakes.
The inclusion of the year makes for a unique set of lyrics, though in the end this is really just another of the sweet and sour love songs that Studdard has become known for.
Lyrics to Ruben Studdard’s Sorry:
(I’m sorry, I’m sorry)
Verse 1
It’s like I missed a shot,
It’s like I dropped the ball. (Man I’m Sorry)
It’s like I’m on stage, and I forget the words. (Damn, I’m sorry)
It’s like building a new house, with no roof and no doors. (Damn, I’m sorry)
It’s like trying to propose, and I ain’t got the ring. (Oooh damn I’m sorry)
But girl I’ve apologized a million times before. (I’ll apologize a million more)
So here it comes again for all the wrong I’ve done. (so get ready babe)
Here’s one million one.
Chorus
This is my sorry for 2004.
And I ain’t gonna mess up no more, this year.
I’m ‘a take this one chance,
and make it real clear.
case I don’t tell you.
(2004)
Verse 2
It’s like stayin’ out at night, and way too much to drink.( Damn, I’m sorry)
It’s like you change your hair,
and I don’t say a thing. (Damn I’m sorry)
It’s like your fallin’ back to sleep,
with no kiss and before we hear. (Damn I’m sorry)
It’s like I forgot your gift,
on 02 14 03. (Damn. So sorry!)
But girl I’ve apologized a million times before. (I’ll apologize a million more)
So here it comes again for all the wrong I’ve done. (so get ready babe)
Here’s one million one.
Chorus
Girl This is my sorry for, 2004.
And I ain’t gonna mess up no more, this year.
I’m ‘a take this one chance,
and make it real clear.
case I don’t tell you.
(2004)
Hook-
(I’m sorry for the way that I did you)
(Sorry from the bottom of my heart for how I hurt you girl)
(Sorry on the weekend, sorry on the week days)
(Sorry for the things I did, sorry for the things I said)
(sorry for the lies)
(sorry for the time)
That I didn’t give you what you want,
That I didn’t give you what you like.
All that I can do is,
tell you that I’m sorry babe.
(I’m sorry babe, I’m sorry)
Oooooooooooooohhhhhhh!
Wooooooooh!
All them strip clubs,
all them hot tubs.
I’m gonna give them up,
’cause I don’t want to lose you now.
Chorus
Cause this is my sorry for, 2004.
And I aint gonna mess up no more, this year.
I’m ‘a take this one chance,
and make it real clear.
case I don’t tell you.
(2004)
Fading
This is my sorry for, 2004.
And I ain’t gonna mess up no more, this year.
I’m ‘a take this one chance,
and make it real clear.
case I don’t tell you.
