Lyrics
Absolutely I Do
Sometimes she sound real sad, when we're talking on the phone
Says she don't like sleeping all alone
And then I feel ashamed, because I'm the one to blame
Now circumstances mean I can't go home
I wish that I could tell her it won't be long
Every night I'm crossing off the days I've drawn on my wall
Now there ain't much I can do from here to stop her being blue
Except to say 'I love you, Absolutely I Do'
I don't know what made me to do, the things that I done
Desperation can consume most any man
I know now it was wrong, but it seemed right at the time
Just a way to bring some sunshine to our lives
I hurt the only woman who's ever cared
And I pray one day she'll understand and wait for me there
'Cos there ain't much I can do from here to stop her being blue
Except to say 'I love you, Absolutely I do'
I know I don't deserve a second chance
But I'll swear to her I'll make amends the best way that I can
But for now all I can do from here to stop her being blue
Is to remind her that I love her, Absolutely I do
It's true that I love her, Absolutely I do
