I Was Wrong
Embracing Redemption: Acknowledging Mistakes in 'I Was Wrong' by A R I Z O N A
Lyrics
Oh I can see the doubt in those eyes
Observing doubt in someone's eyes
Even though you try to hide it
Acknowledging attempts to hide doubt
There's not much to figure out
Expressing simplicity in the situation
'Cause I know why
Claiming understanding of the reason
And I won't try to fight it, try to fight it
Accepting and not resisting the truth
And I'll be the first to tell you
Admitting the other person was right
You were right
Acknowledging the correctness of the other person
Oh you were right, oh you were right
-Won't try to say I'm sorry this time
Not apologizing this time
But I want you to know that I was wrong
Expressing acknowledgment of being wrong
I know, I know
-I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-Oh I want you to know that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-It used to be so warm, those days
Reflecting on past warm days and personal turmoil
I try not to remember
-I got lost in the storm, of my ways
-Couldn't pull myself together, self together
-And I'll be the first to tell you, you were right
Reiterating that the other person was right
Oh you were right, oh you were right
-Won't try to say I'm sorry, this time
Choosing not to apologize again
But I want you to know that I was wrong
Repeating the acknowledgment of being wrong
I know, I know
-I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-Oh I want you to know that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-And I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
Reaffirming awareness of the mistake
I want you to know that I was wrong
Continuing to express regret for being wrong
I know
-I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know
-Oh I want you to know that I was wrong
Reiterating the admission of being wrong
I know, I know
-And I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-Oh I want you to know that I was wrong
Continuing to express the desire to admit fault
I know, I know
-And I just wanna say that I was wrong
-I know, I know
-I know, I know, I know
Repeating the internal acknowledgment of the mistake
