Lyrics

All I need
Writers eddie holland, frank wilson, r. dean taylor

(Forgive this fool, my darling.)
Oh, this heart of mine, carries a heavy load
When I think about how I've hurt you so
After you've been, been so good to me
I've been unfaithful, darling, I've caused you misery
The feeling of guilt, oh, it tortures me
And only you, my darling, oh, can set me free
And darling, all, all I need
Is just to hear you say
You'll forgive me, forgive me baby
All, all I need, to have you touch my hand
Say you'll understand, baby
A moment of weakness, darling, caused me to stray
Your trust in me, dear, I threw away
When I look, look into your eyes
I can see the hurt, baby, that you feel inside
Although I hurt you baby, you never once complained
It makes me feel, sweet darling, that much more ashamed
Tears of guilt, tears of guilt running down my face
Tears that only you baby, only you can erase
And darling, all, all I need
Is just to hear you say
You'll forgive me, forgive me baby
All, all I need, to have you touch my hand
Say you'll understand, ooo
[Instrumental]
(Forgive this fool, my darling.)
I know, I made a big mistake
When all your love, darling, yes I did forsake
It's on my mind, it's in my heart
This guilty feeling tearing me apart
With every step I make, every breath I take
I'll make it up to you, I'll make it up to you
Undo the wrong I've done, undo the wrong I've done
I've been unfaithful, I know it's true
But I'll make it up to you
Baby, all, all I need
Is just to hear you say
You'll forgive me, forgive me baby
All, all I need
To have you touch my hand
Say you'll understand
Baby, all, all I need
Is just to hear you say
You'll forgive me, forgive me baby
