I Forgot To Be Your Lover
Have I told you lately that I love ya?
Well, if I didn't, darling, I'm sorry
Did I reach out and hold ya in my loving arms
Oh, when you needed me?
Now I realize that you need love too
And I'll spend my life making up to you
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
Have I taken the time to share with you
All the burdens that lovers bear?
And have I done the little simple things
To show you just how much I care?
Oh, I've been working for you, doing all I can
But work all the time, didn't make me a man
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you somehow, baby
I forgot to be your lover
I'm so sorry
I forgot to be your lover
Gonna make it up to you somehow, baby
Well, if I didn't, darling, I'm sorry
Did I reach out and hold ya in my loving arms
Oh, when you needed me?
Now I realize that you need love too
And I'll spend my life making up to you
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
Have I taken the time to share with you
All the burdens that lovers bear?
And have I done the little simple things
To show you just how much I care?
Oh, I've been working for you, doing all I can
But work all the time, didn't make me a man
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you somehow, baby
I forgot to be your lover
I'm so sorry
I forgot to be your lover
Gonna make it up to you somehow, baby
