Yes I know you're angry and I know you've got the right to leave But it hurts so much to see you flirting right in front of me And I know you didn't mean it it's just your little way of comin' on But angel you don't know how much I love you forgive me I was wrong It's only paper tear it up... Let me show how much I love you pretty lady let me make it up tonight
