If I Could Only Have Her Love Back
Don't need to be rich
Don't have to be smart
'Cause without even tryin'
She can remind you
How lucky you are
She's a beautiful thing
And what makes it a crime
Is I took someone I love
Too long for granted
No wonder she left me behind

Baby, if I could only have her love back
I swear I would change if she
Would give me one more chance at
To lift her up where she belongs
She loved me right and I loved her wrong
So I'm cryin' out for mercy
What do I have to do to have her forgive me?
Am I just wastin' my time
Wonderin' if I could only have her love back?
She gave all of herself
Always thinkin' of us
Honesty was all she
Ever wanted from me
And I never gave her enough
Now it's easy to see
But so hard to survive
Oh, the one big mistake
Is gonna mess up my heart
For the rest of my life

Baby, if I could only have her love back
I swear I'd change if she
Would give me one more chance at
To lift her up where she belongs
She loved me right and I loved her wrong
So I'm cryin' out for mercy
What do I have to do to have her forgive me?
Am I just wastin' my time
Wonderin' if I could only have her love back?

[Instrumental break.]

I may be dreamin', lyin'
Deceivin' myself
But I still have to try
Every ounce of my bein'
Struggles for meanin'
Without her here in my life
Baby, now I'm cryin' out for mercy
What do I have to do to have her forgive me?
Am I just wastin' my time
Wonderin' if I could only have her love back?
I need her love back
I want her love back
I want you back, baby
Mmmm-mmm
