I Love You, I'm Sorry
Gracie Abrams · 2024
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- I love you, I'm sorry
- Two summers from now
- We'll have been talking, but not all that often, we're cool now
- I'll be on a boat, you're on a plane
Echo the hook
- The way life goes
- Joyriding down our road
- Lay on the horn to prove that it haunts me
