[Intro] Uh, baby Little darling I really love you [Verse 1] 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 arms Oh, when you needed me? Now I realize that you need love, too And I'll spend my life making love to you [Chorus] Oh, I forgot to be a lover And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Have some mercy; have some mercy [Verse 2] Have I taken the time to share with you All the burdens that love come with? And have I told you little simple things to show you How much I care? I've been workin' for you, doin' all I can Work all night didn't make me a man [Chorus] Oh, I forgot to be a lover Have some mercy Why won't you have some mercy Since you left me an' gone You know I just can't go on Since you walked out on me, since you walked out on me Every thing I do, seem to go wrong Little darling, have some mercy I feel like crying You know I feel like dying Since you left me an' gone You know I just can't go on [Verse 3] Have I taken the times to share with you All the burdens that love come with?
