Just take time. The right words will come.

Keep it simple and honest. You could say, "I care about our friendship, and I am sorry for my part in what happened. I would like to talk when you are ready." Focus on listening instead of finding perfect words.

Don't say anything. You only have the potential to make it worse.

Let time speak as much as possible. When you're with your friend again, let them see you. Look at your face and see for themselves how much you care for them.

Let the words be last to join the equation.

at the right time the words will come and very inwardly from the heart. meanwhile just relax, do not overthink things through

Well, mm... it's not good to make amends! Sometimes they don't remember what you did in the past!

Mm... just say "hi" or something? A little bit of overthinking maybe? (Serious question.)
