Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Darling, I, I can't explain
Where did we lose our way?
Girl, it's driving me insane
And I know I just need one more chance
To prove my love to you
If you come back to me
I'll guarantee that I'll never let you go
[Chorus]
Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh, God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee
I'll never walk again until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
[Verse 2]
So many nights, I dream of you
Holding my pillow tight
I know that I don't need to be alone, yeah
When I open up my eyes
To face reality
Every moment without you
It seems like eternity
I'm begging you, begging you, come back to me
[Chorus]
Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh, God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee
I'll never walk again
Until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
[Bridge]
Baby, I'm sorry
Please, forgive me for all the wrong I've done
Please, come back, home girl
I know you put all your trust in me
I'm sorry I let you down
Please, forgive me
[Bridge]
I'm gonna swallow my pride
Say I'm sorry
Stop pointing fingers, the blame is on me
I want a new life
And I want it with you
If you feel the same
Don't ever let it go
You gotta believe in the spirit of love
It'll heal all things
It won't hurt anymore
No, I don't believe our love's terminal
I'm down on my knees, begging you please, come home
[Chorus]
Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh, God, give me a reason I'm down on bended, down on bended knee
[Chorus]
Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh, God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee
[Outro]
I'll never walk again
Till you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
