[Verse 1]
If you see Mary, will you tell her I called?
Tell her that I love her and I'm sorry, that's all
You see, we had our very first quarrel today
I got really angry and I slapped her face
[Verse 2]
Now, I'm sorry, but what can I say?
I love her so much, I can't think straight
[Verse 3]
My name is Peggy, and I know how you feel
Same thing that happened to you did to me
I was so upset, I couldn't sleep for a week
Finally, he called, boy, was I relieved
[Verse 4]
Now, I'm sorry, but what can I say?
You love her so much, you can't think
Lover her so much, you can't think
[Verse 5]
What about people other than me?
What about those with nothing to eat?
How can I claim that life isn't fair?
What a pathetic sight, I swear
If I could kick, I'd kick
Myself, of course, and if
[Verse 6]
Listen to me, look, I know what I'm sayin'
I'm sure Mary is as much to blame
Well, in that case, why won't she answer the phone?
Don't try and tell me she's not at home
[Verse 7]
I'm sorry, but what can I say?
I'm sorry, but what can I say?
(We're sorry, but what can we say?)
I love her so much, I can't think
[Verse 8]
What are we doing, what have we done?
What in the world is going on?
Isn't it crazy, lookin' so fine?
Knowing that in as much time as it
Takes to make a drink
We could all become as the dinosaur has
Nothing but extinct
And to top it all, I hear
That my rent is to be raised
[Verse 9]
So if you see Mary, will you tell her I called?
Tell her that I love her and I'm sorry, that's all
And by the way, thank you for being so kind
If I've taken up too much of your time
[Verse 10]
I'm sorry, but what can I say?
(I'm sorry, but what can I say?)
(We're sorry, but what can we say?)
I love her so much, I can't think
I love her so much, I can't think straight
