I didn't mean to be so late It's just that I got talking I had a drink with a couple of mates Missed my bus and wound up walking I tried to call and let you know It was busy and I couldn't get through I didn't want to let you down I know how much it hurts you
I don't know what came over me It must have slipped my mind I'll try and make it up to you Let's leave the past behind I promise that I'll do my best To mend my wicked ways And don't believe the things you hear Don't listen to what they say
[Chorus:] I would do for you All you'd have me do All you have to do Is ask me to All you have to do Is tell me when And I'll come running back again
If there's something wrong then let me know Don't bottle things inside Your pretty eyes can melt my heart Your sadness they can't hide Please try and give me one more chance To set the record straight Meet me here tomorrow night And I promise I won't be late
