Too Hard To Say I'm Sorry Lyrics

Artist: Charley Pride
Album: The Country Way

Just two words were all that she would ask of me
And I could have the world and all its holds for me
Of love and tender care not the pain and the sorrow
That will be mine tomorrow but I just can't seem to say it I'm sorry
I know exactly what I should do admit I'm wrong it wouldn't take long
And she'd forgive me
And I know exactly what I ought to say but I'm not built that way
Wish that I could say I'm sorry
I'm a man at least that's what I'll like to think
A stubborn man who now is standing on the brink
Of hate and dispair and I care and I'm sorry
And I ought to tell her but I just can't seem to say it I'm sorry
I know exactly what I should do
But I'm a fool I guess I'll do the things that fools do
I'll stand and watch my dreams go down the drain in my stubborn way
And as they sink I'll say I'm sorry

In the second verse ("I'm a man...") a word is wrong and the error is repeated many times across the internet. If you listen closely to Pride, you'll hear him sing, "a stubborn man who now is standing on the brink of PAIN and despair" (not "hate," which just doesn't fit the situation.

Lawrence Reh is correct on this. The first time I saw the word 'hate', I immediately knew that was wrong. I agree, that just doesn't fit here. The correct word is "pain".
