Please Please Please
Andrew Combs Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sun goes up, sun goes down, another day, another night come round
Waiting for you to come back home.
I've got my question, got my doubts, it's nothing we can't figure out
So darling, don't toss me out of my own.

Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.
Give me one more chance before you say goodbye.

Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.
Give me one more chance and I'll keep you satisfied.

So tell me, darling, just confess, it's something blue about the way you kiss.
So what puts that lonesome looking in your eyes?
If there's someone else, tell me what's his name,
I don't need none, love's not a game,
A thousand kisses, a thousand miles.

Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.
Give me one more chance before you say goodbye.
Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.
Give me one more chance and I'll keep you satisfied.

Darling, don't tell me if you could do it all again
But you be sure, I'll not let love fall through your hands.

Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.
Give me one more chance before you say goodbye.
Begging you please, please, please,
Don't go falling out of love with me.

Give me one more chance before you say goodbye,
Give me one more chance and I'll keep you satisfied
