For the longest time I've wandered
Down paths and winding roads
Only to encounter
What I've already known

The secret to my happiness
The one I call up on the phone
The only love that's in my heart
The only love I've ever shown

I've got to find my way back
From the bottom to the top
Relentless through the thick and thin
I'm never gonna stop

How could I leave you all alone
Baby I'm on my way
Baby I'm coming home
Baby I'm coming home

I'll say all the things I should have said
Do everything I can
To prove to you I've seen the light
Let you know I'm still your man

I've seen the error of my ways
I know I've made mistakes
But please, you just have to believe me
I've still got what it takes

Do you remember that first night
Our eyes met at the dance hall
You looked at me and I knew right then
It was for you that I would fall

Let's go back and rehash that moment
From where it all began
Back to all the innocence
Try to remember if you can

Let's start this whole thing over
I'm calling for a redo
I'll be a better version of myself
And you just keep being you

Can I please just have your forgiveness
Welcome me back with opened arms
This time it won't be like it was back then
When I lured you with all my charm

This is me here standing before you
No gimmicks, tricks, or games
I'm the man you fell in love with
The very one in the same

I'll get down on bended knee
Ask you if you'll be my bride
And If you'd have me as your husband
I'd be the happiest man alive
I honestly have no idea where this stuff comes from. At no point in my life have I had this happen to me. Nor do I have any idea why it was even thought of to write in the first place. Once I get a line in my head, the whole thing just takes off until I've satisfied whatever it was that made me start to begin with.
