These four little words are my S.O.'s favorite. After a couple of decades together, the song wrote itself.
Lyrics
FOUR LITTLE WORDS
Sometimes without meaning to, you hurt the one you love
And sometimes you know it’s no accident at all
When you come to your senses and you wanna mend fences
Here’s a tip I hope you will recall
If from time to time you two should find yourself at odds
And you think God should help your sweetheart see the light
I guarantee you’ll get results from these few simple almost
Foolproof words: “I’m sorry” and “You’re right.”
Four little words can bring so much clarity
And keep you from a lonely, sleepless night
Four little words, spoken with sincerity
“I’m sorry,” and “You’re right.”
You say you think you’re beyond the help of a shrink
And though you fight, you can’t quite remember why
Before you call it quits, make good and sure you’ve given it that
One last pride-swallowing try with those
Four little words, overcome your temerity
And they’ll keep you from a lonely, sleepless night
Four little words, spoken with sincerity
“I’m sorry,” and “You’re right.”
Now, I don’t know about your S.O.
But there’s nothing mine would rather hear
And if I’m in the dog house really bad
I’ll probably add a couple more like, “Yes, dear.”
After you’ve blown up, who’s gonna be the grown up
That’s the hardest part of love to learn
Here’s a new idea, what if you and she do your
Making up by taking turns saying those
Four little words, that’s true pouty parity and
It’ll keep you from a lonely, sleepless night – one, two, three
Four little words, use ‘em with regularity
“I’m sorry,” and “You’re right.”
When faced with that chill it takes an act of will
And that can be the toughest of chores
But if you can’t say all four, try the first two and I’m almost sure
The heart that starts melting might be yours if you use
Four little words, why are they such a rarity when they’ll
Keep you from a lonely, sleepless night – what’s more those
Four little words will increase your popularity
“I’m sorry, sorry, I’m so very sorry, yes, dear, you’re right.”
