I'm beggin' you, let's start anew All my fears were wrong I was too headstrong Now I'm missing you It's been too long, and still you're gone If you ever cared About the life we shared Please let me know I think about you lately More than you will ever know And if you could just forgive me You know I'd love you so We had a love, to be proud of What was once a thrill Then became a chill And so very cold So I'm beggin you, let's start anew Give it one more chance It's the final dance Before you go away I've got something more to say I think about you lately... You know I never meant no harm Can't you see it's just a false alarm How can I make you change your mind 'Cause I wanna make it right this time You know I'll love you all the way That's why I'm beggin' you to stay You've got to listen to my plea I'm down here on my bended knees Baby won't you please come home Can't stand to be so all alone
