Lyrics

  1. What can I do or say to you?
    I know exactly how you feel
    I’ve hurt you so, I’m wrong I know
    Please listen, dear, to my appeal

Chorus
Forgive me! Please forgive me
I didn’t mean to make you cry
I love you and I need you
Do anything but don’t say goodbye
Let bygones just be bygones
We all make mistakes now and then
I’m sorry, forgive me, my dear
And let’s be sweethearts again

  1. Why should we part? Deep in your heart
    You know I’ve loved no one else but you
    Don’t turn from me, please hear my plea
    Give me another chance, please do
