Here I am, girls o' mine, pleadin' but it's all in vain
Here I am, out of line, can't we make it up again?
You know, baby, there's no maybe, I love only you
You the only one and no one else will do
It makes me forgive when you turn me away
But I know, dear, that you don't understand
Won't you believe anything I say?
But I know, dear, that you don't understand
Open up your heart, let me in your heart, I'm pleadin'
No one else will do, 'cause it's only you I'm needin'
My fate you hold, my love, in your hands
But I know, dear, that you don't understand
I'm so blue, in despair, 'cause you have turned me down
I don't know, if you care, I don't come around
You know, honey, it's so funny, when you treat me bad
Won't you hear me pleadin', 'cause I'm goin' mad
It makes me cry, when you laugh in my face
But I know, dear, that you don't understand
Now I see why I can't hold first place
'Cause I know, dear, that you don't understand
For your love I'll strive, sure as I'm alive, I'll bet you
Then you'll forgive, soon you'll forgive, I'll get you
Then you'll see all the things that I've planned
But I know, dear, that you don't understand
