I really love this song.  It's called "Apology Song" and it's by the Decemberists:

 

"I'm really sorry Steven
But your bicycle's been stolen
I was watchin it for you
'Til you came back in the fall
Guess I didn't do such a good job after all

"I was feeling really sorry
Steven
And I spent all morning grieving
And everybody's saying
That you'll take the news gracefully
Somehow I don't think I'll be getting off that easily

"I meant her no harm
When I left her unlocked
Outside the Orange Street Food Farm
I was just running in
Didn't think I'd be that long
I came out, she was gone
And all that was there was some bored old dog
Leashed up to the place where your bicycle had been
Guess we'll never see poor Madeleine again

"Let this be consolation,
Steven
That all the while you were in England
I treated her with care and respect
And gave her lots of love
And I was usually pretty good 'bout locking her up

"Where has she gone?
Well, I bet she's on the bottom of a Frenchtown pond
Rudely abused on some heschers joyride
So I wrote you this song
In the hopes that you'd forgive me
Even though it was wrong
Being so careless with a thing so great
And taking your poor Madeleine away, away"

 

If someone sang that song to me in apology, I'd forgive them in a heartbeat.
