About Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word

"Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" is a song written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. It was recorded by Elton John and released in 1976, both as a single and as part of the Blue Moves album. It was John's second single released by The Rocket Record Company. The song is a mournful ballad about a romantic relationship which is falling apart. The song also appeared the following year on Greatest Hits Volume II, though for copyright reasons it no longer appears on the current version of that album.

Sorry seems to be the hardest word

What I gotta do to make you love me
What I gotta do to make you care
What do I do when lightnin' strikes me
And a way to find wen ure not there

What I gotta do to make want me
What I gotta do to be heard
What do I say wen it's all over
Sorry seems to be the hardest word
(That's right)

It's sad
So sad
It's a sad sad situation
And its gettin' more and more absurd
It's sad so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Always seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

What do I do to make you want me
What I gotta do to be heard
What do I say wen its all over
Sorry seems to be the hardest word

It's sad
So sad
It's a sad sad situation
And it's gettin' more and more absurd
It's sad so sad why can't we talk it over
Always seems to me
Sorry seems to be the hardest word

Yeah

Sorry

What do I do to make you love me
What I gotta do to be heard
What do I do when lighting strikes me
Yeah
What have I gotta do
What have I gotta do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word
