Lyrics:
Darling I’m ashamed
Wish I could change
The things I said
That caused you pain

Fire in my eyes that made you cry
Filled up all the oceans
And swallowed all my pride

And it sunk to the bottom of the sea
Yeah I swear it’ll stay there in the deep

And I know I wasn’t right
Don’t be mistaken
I’ll tell the truth when I’m a fool
When I’m a fool

I give to you my word
That I will serve
You like my queen
Your praises I will sing

My love for you is older than a stone
Stronger than a mountain
And like a river flows

Right down to the bottom of the sea
Yeah it rolls with my pride in that deep

But when I know that I’m not right
When I’m mistaken
I will always tell the truth when I’m a fool
When I’m a fool

Darling I’m ashamed
Wish I could change
The things I said
That caused you pain

Fire in my eyes that made you cry
Filled up all the oceans
And swallowed all my pride

And it sunk to the bottom of the sea
Yeah I swear it’ll stay there in the deep

And I know I wasn’t right
Don’t be mistaken
I’ll tell the truth when I’m a fool
When I’m a fool
When I’m a fool
When I’m a fool
When I’m a fool

This song is the truest love song you've written. This is the hardest thing to do in any relationship and also the most necessary.

[rosedouglas]

Oh yes, that low low voice when you sustain the word that hits dead center to my soul... oh I just love that!!! 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️

[marielaalcantar]

The progression of this song is unbelievably smooth. The only thing missing from it is a glass of whiskey.

[jessicajames]

Why is every song he creates so amazing! Each one has such a beautiful deep meaning to it. His solo music is just so perfect and Ariel & The Sequoias was awesome. Anybody else miss them a little bit?

[chrisford]

Avi has become my favorite recording artist, by far.

[naturallytalie]

Every single song on this album is an absolute hit

[dorrit_rosen]

Love how your voice goes to the basement as your pride sinks to the bottom of the sea. Thank you for another great song🌹

[kevinmcpeek]

So hard to admit when you're wrong. It is a character flaw I've struggled with my whole life. This song hits that feeling so well, , , Avi.. Killing it, tellin truths...

[JoanN]

I listened to everything with my headphones on, eyes closed and lying on the couch. Then you can hear all the details in the song so well. All the "Avi's" in different pitches, especially the low note in 'fool'. So beautiful. With the mandolin(?) and other sounds it just sounds wonderful.

[jesuschildmgb]

He is amazing and truly ❤ God blessing him and his life ❤

[kurtsiecolferites]

Amazing! This is one of my favorite songs on the new album!

[misty]

I appreciate the depth of this song. Not only the depth and resonance of your voice which cannot be overlooked, but the depth of humility the lyrics portray. It’s a hard concept to grasp, but we are at our greatest potential when we are truly humble.

[timothyhirt]

Love is music. Since he came on the scene in 2011 with Pentatonix on the Sing-Off, I've followed his career. His voice gets better every time I hear it! Ages like a fine wine.

[siobhanlawrence]

Love love love this epic song, his whole album wraps you in a warm blanket and takes you on a journey 🫶🏻🫶🏻.

[snowyowl]

Another song I can't melt into a dream with. Thank you for sharing such beautiful music Avi.❤️❤️
