Darlin', can't you see
|
What losin' you has done to me?
|
I'm not the same girl I used to be
|
|
Have a change of heart,
|
Don't leave me standin' in the dark
|
Don't let confusion keep us apart
|
|
Come back to me,
|
And I'll guarantee
|
All the tenderness and love you'll ever need
|
|
This time I'll be sweeter,
|
Our love will run deeper;
|
I won't mess around,
|
I won't let you down,
|
Have faith in me (umm hmm)
|
Have faith in me
|
|
Since you've been away,
|
I haven't seen the light of day;
|
I'm lost without you,
|
Can't find my way
|
|
So won't you please be fair,
|
And let me show how much I care,
|
Say you'll be mine
|
And answer my pray'r
|
|
Come back to me,
|
And I promise I'll be
|
Ev'rything that's bright and new,
|
Your whole life through
|
|
This time I'll be sweeter,
|
Our love will run deeper;
|
I won't mess around,
|
I won't let you down,
|
Have faith in me (umm hmm)
|
Have faith in me
|
|

This Time I'll Be Sweeter
