I Forgot To Be Your Lover

I Forgot To Be Your Lover - William Bell

Have I told you

Lately that I love you

Well, if I didn't

Darling, I'm sorry

Did I reach out and

Hold you in my loving arm

Oh, when you needed me

Now I realize

That you need love too

And I'll spend my life

Making love to you

Oh, I forgot to be your lover

And I'm sorry, so sorry

Have I taken the time

to share with you

All the burdens, a love affair

And have I done the

Little simple things to show you

Just how much I care

Oh, I been working for you

Doing all I can

but work all the time

Didn't make me a man

Oh, I forgot to be your lover

And I'm sorry,

I'll make it up to you

somehow, baby

I forgot to be your lover

Gonna make it up to you somehow

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby

I forgot to be your lover

If you'll forgive me

I'll make it up to you

I'm only a man and I forgot
