i forgot to be your lover

and hold ya in my loving arms

when you needed me

now i realise that you need love too

and i'll spend my life making up to you

oh 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

doing all i can

but work all the time

didn't make me a man

oo oo

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!
