[Verse 1]
I didn't mean to be so late
It's just that I got talking
Had a drink, smoked a couple of Js
Missed a bus and wound up walking
Go to call and let you know
It was busy, and I couldn't get through
I didn't mean to let you down
I know how much it hurts you

[Chorus]
Well, I would do for you
All you'd have me do
And all you have to do
Is ask me to
And all you have to say
Is "steal me away"
And I'll come running back again
And I'll come running back again

[Verse 2]
I don't know what came over me
It must have slipped my mind
I try to make it up to you
Let's leave the past behind
I promise that I'll do my best
Change my wicked ways
Don't believe the things you hear
Or listen to things they say
[Chorus]
'Cause I would do for you
All you'd have me do
And all you'd have to do
Is ask me to
And all you have to say
Is "steal me away"
And I'll come running back again
And I'll come running back again

[Verse 3]
If something's wrong, then let me know
Ya swallow things inside
Your pretty eyes can melt my heart
But your sadness, you can't hide
Try to give me one more chance
To set the record straight
Meet me here, tomorrow night
I promise that I won't be late

[Chorus]
'Cause I would do for you
All you'd have me do
And all you have to do
Is ask me to
And all you have to say
Is "steal me away"
And I'll come running back again
I would do for you
All you'd have me do
And all you'd have to do
Is ask me to
And all you have to say
Is "steal me away"
And I'll come running back again
And I'll come running back again
