What I got to do to make you love me?
What I got to do to make you care?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
And I wake to find that you''''re not there?

What I got to do to make you want me?
What I got to do to be heard?
What do I say when it''''s all over?
Sorry seems to be the hardest word.

It''''s sad, so sad
It''''s a sad, sad situation.
And it''''s getting more and more absurd.
It''''s sad, so sad
Why can''''t we talk it over?
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word.
What do I do to make you want me?
What I got to do to be heard?
What do I say when it''''s all over?
Sorry seems to be the hardest word.

It''''s sad, so sad
It''''s a sad, sad situation.
And it''''s getting more and more absurd.
It''''s sad, so sad
Why can''''t we talk it over?
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word.

What I got to do to make you love me?
What I got to do to be heard?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
What have I got to do?
What have I got to do?
When sorry seems to be the hardest word.
