About “I Was Wrong” By Chris Stapleton
“I Was Wrong” is a song by Chris Stapleton from his second studio album, From A Room: Volume 1, which was released in 2017.
The song delves deep into the emotions of a man who regrets hurting someone he loves with thoughtless words. The somber tone of the track invites listeners into the perspective of the narrator, who is reflecting on the impact his words have when speaking out of anger and now deals with the consequences of his actions.
“I’ve been thinking ’bout my thoughtless words/ And I know just how much they must have hurt/ And I take it back/ Won’t you let me take it back?
You know I told you that I don’t love you/ That I’d be better off with someone new/ But I take it back
Won’t you let me take it back?Girl, you know that I still love you/ And you know that I’m so alone/ I don’t know why/ I told you that/ I didn’t need you/ Can’t you see that, baby, I was wrong?”
