Lyrics for 'Apology' by 'Gordon Lightfoot'
I Remember Everything
I've Learned About Survival
I've Walked With Fools And Kings
And I've Even Read The Bible

There I Came Upon Some Lines
Givin' Me Direction
Gather Not Your Gold On Earth
Your Kingdom Is In Heaven

But I Chose To Live Instead
Inside The Shell They Gave Me
'til In Spite Of Everything
Good Fortune Came To Find Me

I Tried My Best To Run Away
But I Could Not Avoid The Feelin'
Soon I Was Reelin' On My Feet
I Made A Grab At Anything
The Earth Was Gone And I Was On
A Vicious Circle Then

After I'd Gone And Let Myself Surrender
I Didn't Want To Die At All
I Thought I'd Live Forever

Then She Gave Me Everything
A King Could Never Borrow
But I Twisted All Her Gifts
Her Wisdom Was My Sorrow

So I Left Her Cryin'
And Roamed Across The River
The Angels Offered Me Their Hands
But I Could Not Forget Her

So I Came To Where She Was
By River, Road And Reason
I Slept Beneath Her Window
In The Moonlight Summer Season

But I Could Not Go Inside
I Heard The Sound Of Laughter
And The Rustle Of Her Hair Upon His Skin
I Made A Grab At Anything
The Earth Was Gone And I Was On
A Vicious Circle Then

After I'd Gone To Cry Down My Sorrow
I Didn't Want To Live No More
Nor Face The Bright Tomorrow

Then I Remembered Everything
I've Learned About Survival
Havin' Walked With Fools And Kings
I've Even Read The Bible

I Remember All Those Lines
Givin' Me Direction
Gather Not Your Gold On Earth
It Will Not Pass Inspection

And Still I Think When I'm Alone
Away From All Night Splendor
If Gold Could Buy One Night With Her
I Wish I Had Some To Send Her
