But remember troubles don't always last

Encouraging the baby by asserting that troubles are temporary and will not always persist.


Oh you tried so hard to tell me you love me

You tried so hard to tell me you love me, woman

But now I'm older and I'm wiser, baby

And now I can understand your ways

Oh, I'm at your mercy, woman

Oh, I'm asking for just one more chance

Requesting an opportunity for redemption and to demonstrate genuine love.

Baby, to try to prove my love to you
