Lyrics

[Intro]

I'm so sorry, baby

I never meant to hurt you

Please, forgive me

[Verse 1]

Tears I see drop from your eyes

Tell me why you cry

Guilt I feel when you look at me

Did I let you down?

[PreChorus]

Girl, you see that I, I apologize

Tell me what to do to get through to you

Girl, it's not the same

I know I was to blame

Just tell me, when will I see you smile again?

[Chorus]

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

'Cause I know I messed up, baby (Oh, ooh)

And I know you're fed up, sugar (Hey-hey)

Tell me, when will I see you smile again? (Oh-ooh)

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar

[Verse 2]

Promises I know I made many times before

And I broke each one of them

But I had to learn over and over again

Don't hurt the one you love

[PreChorus]

Girl, you see that I, I apologize

Tell me what to do to get through to you

Girl, it's not the same

I know I was to blame

Just tell me, when will I see you smile again?

[Verse 3]

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar (Hey-hey)

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

I wonder if you can tell me, tell me

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar

[Bridge]

Look, baby, listen

Please forgive me for all the wrong I've done

You see, I just can't understand why I keep making

The same damn mistake over and over again

But there's one question that remains in the back of my mind now

And that is, when will I see you smile again?

[Chorus]

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

Maybe we can talk it over (Huh)

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

Maybe we can work it out

And I know you're fed up, sugar

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

Is there something I can say?

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar

Is there something I can do? Hey-hey-hey-hey

[Outro]

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar

Tell me, when will I see you smile again?

'Cause I know I messed up, baby

And I know you're fed up, sugar
