I Would Do For You Lyrics - Ub40

I didn't mean to be so late 

It's just that I got talking 

I had a drink with a couple of mates 

Missed my bus and wound up walking 

I tried to call and let you know 

It was busy and I couldn't get through 

I didn't want to let you down 

I know how much it hurts you 

I don't know what came over me 

It must have slipped my mind 

I'll try and make it up to you 

Let's leave the past behind 

I promise that I'll do my best 

To mend my wicked ways 

And don't believe the things you hear 

Don't listen to what they say 

[Chorus] 

I would do for you 

All you'd have me do 

All you have to do 

Is ask me to 

All you have to do 

Is tell me when 

And I'll come running back again 

If there's something wrong then let me know 

Don't bottle things inside 

Your pretty eyes can melt my heart 

Your sadness they can't hide 

Please try and give me one more chance 

To set the record straight 

Meet me here tomorrow night 

And I promise I won't be late 

[Chorus] 

I would do for you...
