[Verse 1]
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Well, if I didn't, then I'm sorry
Did I reach out and hold you in my lovin' arms
Oh, when you needed me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I realize that you need love too
And I'll spend my life, make it up to you

[Chorus]
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry

[Verse 2]
Have I taken the time to share with you
All the burdens that love will bear?
Have I done all the little simple things to show you
Just how much I care?

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been workin' for you, doin' all I can
And work all the time, doesn't make me a man

[Chorus]
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
[Outro]
Oh
Yeah
Ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
