I'm just a simple man
Doing the best I can
Driving a car I can afford

Born with a losing hand
Don't have a master plan
Trying to do right by the Lord

I am the beast, you're the beauty
Do you still have feelings for me?
I know that I said some quite stupid things
And if only I could take the words back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Then would you say that you love me
(ah ah)
Wish you could only forgive me
(ah ah)
Tell me that I make you happy
(ah ah), oh oh
Promise to love you forever, and ever, and ever, and ever and back
Ever and back

I know that I drink too much
Gamble more than enough
Promise you I'll give it up
And I'll open a bank account
Save up a big amount
Buy back the future we lost
I've been a fool to my princess
Treated you wrong from the start
But oh, when you left me I lost my direction
So tell me that you want me back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Then would you say that you love me
(ah ah ah)
I wish you could only forgive me
(ah ah ah)
Tell me that I make you happy
(ah ah ah), oh
I promise to love you forever, and ever, and ever, and ever and back
Forever and back

And don't be afraid to love again
(ah ah), oh oh
Give me a chance to be better

I've been a fool to my princess
I've treated you wrong from the start
But oh, when you left me I lost my direction
So tell me that you want me back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Then would you say that you love me
(ah ah ah)
I wish you could only forgive me
(ah ah ah)
And tell me that I make you happy
(ah ah ah), oh
I promise to love you forever, and ever
Ever and back
Say that you love me
(ah ah ah)
Wish you could only forgive me
(ah ah ah), oh yeah
Tell me that I make you happy
(ah ah ah)
I promise to love you forever
Oh oh oh
Fo-o-or, forever and back
