When you were so in love with me
I'll be working my way back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
Yeah, I'm working my way back to you, babe
and the happiness that died
I let it get away
(Been payin' ev'ry day)
I played around like I was free
Thought I could have my cake and eat it too
but how I cried over losin' you
See me down and out
but I ain't about to go living my life without you
For every day I made you cry
I'll pay and girl, till the day that I die
I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
Yeah, I'm working my way back to you, babe
and the happiness that died
I let it get away
(Been payin' ev'ry day)
Oh, I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
If I'd been a man in reality
you'd be here, babe, lovin' me
Now my nights are long and lonely, and I ain't too strong, babe
I just miss you so
Girl, but you're too proud, and you won't give in
But when I think about all I could win
I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you, babe
and the happiness that died
I let it get away
(Been payin' ev'ry day)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm working my way back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you, babe
and the happiness that died(Oh, how I cry)
I'm working my way back to you, babe
with a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you, babe...
