I'll be working my way
back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yes, I'm working my
way back to you, babe
With a happiness that died.
I let it get away
I'm paying every day
When you were so
in love with me
I played around
like I was free
Oh, I could have my
cake and eat it too
But how I cried
over losing you.
See me down and out
But I ain't about to go
living my life without you
For every day I made you cry
I'm paying girl
till the day that I die
Working my way
back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
Yes, I'm working my
way back to you, babe
With a happiness that's died.
I let it get away
I'm paying every day
I used to love to
make you cry
It made me feel
like a man inside
But if I'd been a man in reality
you'd still be here
baby, loving me
Now the nights are long
and lonely and I ain't
too strong, babe.
I just miss you so
And you're too proud.
You won't give in
But when I think about
all that we've been
I keep working my way
back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm working my way
back to you babe
With a happiness
that's died.
I let it get away
I'm paying every day
My world is all alone
I can't wait to
get back home
I'm really sorry
that I've been this way.
I'm really sorry
Oh, I'm really sorry
for telling you lies
for so long
Oh, forgive me girl
Why don't you
forgive me girl
Forgive me girl.
C'mon forgive me girl.
I want you over and over and
over and over again..
I'll be working my way
back to you babe
With a burning
love inside
I'm working my way
back to you babe
With a happiness
that's died.
I let it get away
I'm paying every day
