Oh Maggie, give me one more chance
I swear, I'll make everything right.
Oh Maggie, can I have this dance?
Please stay-ay-ay-ay tonight.
Walking down Broadway in the blinding light.
The city is ringing in my ears.
Trying to work out how a few months
turned into years.
She cradles the young ones by the fire side
Smoldering embers among tears.
Collects a few bar bites
and each fortnight I'm in her ears.
And she fears.
And I say,
"Oh Maggie, give me one more chance
I swear, I'll make everything right.
Oh Maggie, can I have this dance?
Please stay-ay-ay-ay tonight."
Millions of people on these crowded streets
I've never felt so all alone.
Longing to see her is all that's keeping me goin'
Oh Maggie if only you would understand
Being a part can set us free
It's just taking longer than I ever thought it could
be.
Oh, believe me when I say,
"Oh Maggie, give me one more chance
I swear, I'll make everything right.
Oh Maggie, can I have this dance?
Please stay-ay-ay-ay tonight."
(Instrumental)
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
And I say,
"Oh Maggie, give me one more chance
I swear, I'll make everything right.
Oh Maggie, can I have this dance?
Please stay-ay-ay.
Oh Maggie give me one more chance
I swear, I'll make everything right.
Oh Maggie, can I have this dance?
Please stay-ay-ay-ay tonight.
