The last few months, I've been workin' on me, baby
There's so much trauma in my life I've been so cold to the ones who loved me, baby
I look back now and I realize
* And I remember when I held you You begged me with your drowning eyes to stay
And I regret I didn't tell you Now I can't keep you from loving him You made up your mind
** Say I love you, girl, but I'm out of time Say I'm there for you, but I'm out of time
Say that I'll care for you, but I'm out of time
Said I'm too late to make you mine, out of time (Ah)
If he mess up just a little Baby, you know my line If you don't trust him a little
Then come right back, girl, come right back Give me one chance, just a little
Baby, I'll treat you right And I'll love you like I shoulda loved you all the time
( * , ** )
Ooh, singin', out of time Said I had you to myself, but I'm out of time
Say that I'll care for you, but I'm out of time
But I'm too late to make you mine, out of time (Uh) Out of time Out of time
