Song Lyrics

Well, I cried out my eyes the night that you left
And I begged for a sinner's reprieve
And I'll never forget the shame that I felt
When you loosened my grip on your sleeve
You said "Baby, you didn't do anything wrong-
There's just something that I have to see"
And I said "I'll never forgive you for this-
Not even if you say please"

I wanna hear you say please, baby, please
I'm stupid, I was wrong
And you knew it all along
So get
Down on your knees, baby
Swallow up your pride
You know, it wouldn't hurt to cry, and say please..

After you left, you know it took me awhile
To get myself off of the ground
It was maybe a month before thy got me to smile
Baby, I've never been so down
I know you think that I'm just being mean
And you're right, 'cause I'm still mad at you
So if you want back in my graces tonight
There's just one thing you gotta do

I wanna hear you say please, baby please
I'm stupid, I was wrong
And you knew it all along
So get
Down on your knees, baby
Swallow up your pride
You know, it wouldn't hurt to cry, and say please..

You must have thought I was clay in your hands
That I needed the strength of your two legs to stand
Well, baby guess what, I'm standing just fine
It turns out that I've got a little steel in my spine

And I hope you got a box with a pretty bow on top
Give me all the shiny things, your apologies and rings
Let me make this very clear
I gotta see you shed a tear
Baby, I can wait all night, so if you wanna make this right
Say please
