Sometimes you wonder how much I care I get so distracted running nowhere And I take for granted our love is secure But if I started losing you, one thing is sure I'd be down on my knees Ready to pray, darlin' Down on my knees Making you stay I'd be begging you please Don't take your love from me I'd be down on my knees I learned to be strong a long time ago And I can face any wind no matter how hard it blows But I'd have to be stronger than I want to be If I had to live without you loving me I'd be down on my knees Ready to pray, darlin' Down on my knees Making you stay I'd be begging you please Don't take your love from me I'd be down on my knees No one matters more in my life Or makes me feel like you make me feel inside And I've come far enough to know Love's worth never letting go of And love is not a matter of pride I'd be down on my knees Ready to pray, darlin' Down on my knees Making you stay I'd be begging you please Don't take your love from me I'd be down on my knees
