[Intro]
I'm so sorry, baby
It's just the way I am
But I'ma try to be a better man
But for now, please understand
I'm sorry
[Verse 1]
Please forgive me, babe
I know that is a lot to ask
But if you do, I vow to you
To make this love pain be your last
I'll take my wondering days
And chain them to the past
'Cause I'm saying I'm sorry
So sorry
[Chorus]
You gotta believe me
Open your arms and receive me
Love me and not leave me
I will beg and I'll plead
Give whatever you need
[Verse 2]
Shine mercy on me, baby
For not knowing that we aren't enough
You see I never had a thing to lose
And now I know I have oh so very much
If I had one wish granted
I'd wish you don't give up
That's why I'm saying I'm sorry
I'm so sorry
[Chorus]
You gotta believe me
Open your arms and receive me
Love me and not leave me
I will beg and I'll plead
Give you whatever you need
You gotta believe me
Open your arms and receive me
Love me and not leave me
I will beg and I'll plead
Give you whatever you need
[Bridge]
And all the pretty girls, they shine like diamonds at night
They flash a pretty smile and then make you feel all right
How was I supposed to know
That leaving you would let you go
I didn't know
I didn't know, believe me
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm so sorry, baby
It's just the way I am
But I'ma try to be a better man
[Chorus]
You gotta believe me
Open your arms and receive me
Love me and not leave me
I will beg and I'll plead
Give you whatever you need
You gotta believe me
Open your arms and receive me
Love me and not leave me
I will beg and I'll plead
Give you whatever you need
[Outro]
I didn't know the things I said that they would chase you away
I didn't know the things I didn't say could not make you stay
I didn't know
I didn't know I was wrong
I didn't know the things I said that they would chase you away
I didn't know the things I didn't say could not make you stay
I didn't know
I didn't know I was wrong
