  • I need your forgiveness
    And your mercy too
    I must be all kinda crazy
    For what I've done to you
    I hope you understand
    That my heart is true
    Mistakes, I've made 'em
    But I'm making change for you

    Have I learned is your question
    And my answer I have
    But if you're expecting perfection
    Then we're not gon' last
    This is not an excuse
    I'm just telling the truth
    Baby, I'm so sorry
    For hurting you

    Oh, I'm ashamed of me (shame on me)
    Wish I never done you wrong (shame on me)
    Every night of us I dream
    That I wake up in your arms

    I know why you left me
    But since you've been gone
    My understanding
    Has moved and grown
    I've come to this conclusion
    Over and over again
    I don't want an enemy
    I just want back my friend

    Oh, I'm ashamed of me (shame on me)
    I wish I never done you wrong (shame on me)
    Every night of us I dream
    That I wake up in your arms, yeah

    Wish I could say sorry
    Oh, and you come back home
    Hey, baby, yeah
    I was diamonds can do it
    So I wouldn't have to be alone
    Yeah, hey
    If I knew then what I know now
    Everything would be fine
    Yeah, yeah, yeah

    I'm so ashamed, ashamed of me (shame on me)
    Said I wish I never done you wrong (shame on me)
    Every night of us I dream
    That I wake up in your arms

    (I'm ashamed of me)
    I'm ashamed of me, yeah (shame)
    I'm ashamed of all the lies I told (shame)
    Wish I come home, wish I come home at tonight (shame)
    Girl, I wish I've never creeped, oh, Lordy (shame)
    (I'm ashamed of me) said I'm ashamed
    Baby, I thought there was something better out there (shame)
    For me, yeah (I'm ashamed of me)
    Come home, babe (come home, babe, come home, babe)
    What am I supposed to tell these kids?
    Babe, baby, I'm ashamed
    I'm so sorry, babe
    I'm so sorry Writer/s: Dewayne Julius Rogers, Ron Kersey, Sam Dees, Tyrese Darnell Gibson, Warryn S. Campbell
