ADlone or with someEbody else you Aknow 
And Awhen your eyes look into Dmine 
That Aold time love light doesn't Eshine 
But Dlet me try aEgain, don't make me Ago                   
I want Dyou, don't make me go 
My heart would Abreak, I'd miss you so 
Tradin' Elove for sympathy, is old to Ame A7  
What's this Dlovesick heart to do 
When it Acries for only you 
Hold me Eclose, I love you so, don't make me Ago
Guitar Solo 
I'm sorry that I never knew 
The way to show my love to you 
I took too much for granted all the time 
Two hearts in love must give and take 
When one heart fails the other breaks 
So turn me loose cause I cant call you mine
