Booker T. Jones - I Forgot To Be Your Lover lyrics

[Verse One] Have I told you lately that I love you? Well, if I didn't, darlin', 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 Oh, I forgot to be your lover And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry [Verse Two] Have I taken the time to share with you All the burden that love will fare? And have I done the little simple things to show you Just how much I care? Oh, I've been workin' for you doin' all I can To 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 [Outro] 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 forgive me, I'll make it up to you I'm only a man and I forgot Oh, I forgot...
