Have I told you lately that I love you? Well, if I didn't, darling, I'm sorry Did I reach out and hold you 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 bare? And have I done the little simple things to show you Just how much I care? Oh, I've been workin' for you, doin' all I can And 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 Gonna make it up to you somehow Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby I forgot to be your lover Songwriters: Booker T. Jones Jr. / William Bell |
