Analysis of My Heart's Apology



Oh, my sweet baby
Where have you gone
I'm so sorry I hurt you
Oh God, what have I done

Please don't say we're over
'Cause you know who I can be
I want to love you 'til forever
Oh my love, please stay with me

I never meant to hurt you
Or cause you any pain
I only want to love you
Without you, life wouldn't be the same

Oh my baby, I do love you
I hope you know this ture
I pray we stay together
'Cause I can't live without you
