As much as I love you
As much as I need you
Like a fool I let you down
Played around all over town
Forgive me for givin' you such a bad time
For makin' you blue
For makin' you sad
And for givin' you such a bad time
But I swear
If you just give me a chance to
I'll make it all up to you
Forgive me for givin' you such a bad time





I was wrong but I've learned
Even fools live and learn
