What You Got
Redemption Melody: A Heartfelt Apology in What You Got by Bonnie Tyler
Lyrics
I'm so sorry baby
I express regret, addressing my partner affectionately.
I was the one who hesitated
I was hesitant, causing distress.
And I know how much you suffered
Acknowledging your suffering.
And how long you must have waited
You endured a prolonged wait.
But now both my eyes are open
I now see clearly and understand.
And I can truly see
My vision is no longer obscured.
And I'm as sorry as I can be
I sincerely apologize for my actions.
Can you forgive me darling
Seeking forgiveness from my partner.
Can you forgive me babe
Requesting forgiveness affectionately.
I must have been crazy
Admitting past irrational behavior.
My little heart must have been leakin'
My emotions were in turmoil.
I admit it babe
I confess, acknowledging my actions.
I admit
An affirmation of the confession.
I was the first to weaken
I was vulnerable first.
But I love you oh so much
Expressing deep love.
And it ain't no doubt
No doubt about my feelings.
You know what I'm talking about
Confirming the sincerity of my words.
Can you ever forgive me baby
Asking for forgiveness sincerely.
Can you ever forgive me babe
Requesting forgiveness affectionately.
'Cause I just want a little bit, little bit
Expressing a desire for a modest share.
Honey I don't need a lot
Not asking for much, just a little.
I just want a little bit, little bit
Reiterating the desire for a small portion.
Of what you got
Desiring a share of what you possess.
I just want a little, baby
Expressing the same desire more explicitly.
Honey I don't need a lot
Emphasizing contentment with a modest share.
I just want a little bit, little bit
Repeating the desire for a small portion.
Of what you got
Reiterating the desire for a share of what you have.
I'm so sorry babe
Repeating the apology for hesitation.
I was the one who hesitated
Acknowledging the duration of suffering.
I know how long you suffered
Acknowledging the lengthy wait endured.
And how long you must have waited
Reaffirming my realization.
But now both my eyes are open
Both eyes are open, seeing clearly now.
And I can finally see
Confirming the newfound clarity.
And I'm sorry as I can be
Apologizing sincerely for the past.
Can you forgive me darling
Seeking forgiveness again with affection.
Can you forgive me babe
Repeating the request for forgiveness.
'Cause I just want a little bit, little bit
Reiterating the desire for a modest share.
Honey I don't need a lot
Emphasizing contentment with a little.
I just want a little bit, little bit
Expressing the desire for a small portion.
Of what you got
Desiring a share of what you possess.
A little bit, a little bit
Emphasizing the need for a small amount.
Honey I don't need a lot
Not asking for much, just a little.
Just a little bit
Reiterating the need for a small portion.
A little bit of what you got
Desiring a share of what you possess.
A little bit, little bit
Emphasizing the desire for a modest share.
Just a little bit, little bit
Stressing contentment with a little.
I say just a little bit, little bit
Repeating the desire for a small portion.
Of what you got
Desiring a share of what you possess.
