[Verse 1]
I have been a wayward lover and I'm sorry
For I'm wrong and you have been so good to me
All the bad things of this life have come to haunt me
Every moment some mistake I seem to see
[Chorus]
I don't blame you now you have turned me down
Now that I have full possession of my mind
I have cheated on you everywhere in town
I don't blame you for I know I'm wrong this time
[Verse 2]
I will never do you wrong again, my darling
I won't even ask you now to take me back
If those words to you have any meaning
Then the clouds up in the sky won't seem so black
[Chorus]
I don't blame you now you have turned me down
Now that I have full possession of my mind
I have cheated on you everywhere in town
I don't blame you for I know I'm wrong this time
[Instrumental]
I will never do you wrong again, my darling
I won't even ask you now to take me back
If those words to you have any meaning
Then the clouds up in the sky won't seem so black
[Chorus]
I don't blame you now you have turned me down
Now that I have full possession of my mind
I have cheated on you everywhere in town
I don't blame you for I know I'm wrong this time
I don't blame you for I know I'm wrong this time
