Lyrics

[Intro] Darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin' [Verse 1] Darlin' you brought me weak to my knees When I met you I knew I wanted to please The old things I've done The old ways I had I knew all along were real, real bad Being a bad boy was so much fun Having a lot of women, always being on the run [Refrain] I know if I want this thing, this thing to last I gotta shape a new life, different from an old past [Verse 2] I want to think about my past, learn from all my mistakes To gain your love, I'd do all that it takes You're my future, I wanna fulfill your dreams Leave in the past, my conniving and schemes You and I, are like a hand in a glove I'll do everything to keep your love [Refrain] 'Cause I know if I want this thing to last I must shape a new life, different from an old past Darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin' [Verse 3] Fixin' and shapin' to be a better man Is easy to do when your heart is in your best friend's hand When life brings to you the love of your life Makin' her happy will cause you to do what's right I'll bring you flowers, candy, and open car doors too Not because I have to, but because I really love you I want to be all that you really want me to be I want to be your everyday fantasy But see you smile because of somethin' that I've done Makes me forget about stupid and dumb It ain't nothin' bad, a bit of lovin' and get a lil' love back I'm gonna do everything I can to keep that a fact [Refrain] I know if I want this thing, this thing to last I gotta shape a new life, different from an old past [Outro] Darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin'
