I was lying awake last night, waiting for your call But if the rumors are true, that won't bother you at all I'm trying hard to understand What it takes to be your man Now I don't have to wonder anymore Least you can do is say you're sorry Least you can do is give me back my heart Just give me back my heart Seems living in hope was wrong those years I was away Thinking your letters, I never received, had gone astray You said you'd always be there for me Like a fool I thought you'd be Now I don't know what I was thinking at all But the least you can do is say you're sorry girl Least you can do is give me back my heart I won't come around no more You won't find me standing outside your door Least you can do is tell me why, tell me why The least you can do is say you're sorry girl Least you can do is give me back my heart I won't come around no more You won't find me standing outside your door But the least you can do is tell me why I won't be your fool anymore There's no need to be cruel anymore, no, no Least you can do is say you're sorry girl The least you can do is give me back my heart Just give me back my heart
