Hey, I didn't mean a thing I said last night.

I swear I didn't mean a word I used.

You don't have to listen, baby. You have every right

to feel that heart of yours has been abused.

I know I've used up all my chances a long, long time ago

and I really don't deserve to call you mine,

but, if I told you that I loved you, could I lay back down beside you?

Could you take it on faith one more time?

Look at me I'm crying... imagine me crying.

Well, it's time I learned to anyway,

'cause if you're really set on one of us leaving,

I guess there's really nothing left to say.

It seems like such a shame,

but baby, I could never blame you, baby,

for leaving this old story far behind

and if I told that I love you, could I lay back down beside you?

Could you take it on faith one more time?

I know I promised to you before

I wouldn't do anything to hurt you no more.

If I could take it all back and start again... take it all back, well maybe

then,

I could tell you that I love you. I could lay back down beside you.

I could tell you that I love you, lay back down beside you.

If I told you that I love, could I lay back down beside you?

Could you take me on faith one more time?
