I know its late, late in the game/
But my feelings, my true feelings/

Here in my heart/
I know, I know I was wrong, wrong wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong/
I'd like to make a mends for the love that I never, ever, ever, ever shown/
Just don't give up on me, every word is true/
I'll give you my everything, all of my love,all of my love, all of my love love love/
