Now you know me

And you know how proud I am

And what I'm gonna tell you now

It won't be easy to say.



Before I left your side

Ooh, I was so happy there

And I've been so lonely

Since I've been away.



Hoo, baby, well I tried and I know

I can't make it alone

It's such a hard way to go

I just can't make it alone

Cause there's somethin' in my soul (in my soul)

It'll always (always) lead me back to you.



What can I say now

Well, sorry's just not good enough

And I wouldn't blame you if you hurt me now

The way I hurt you then.



Oh, then who am I to turn to

Oh baby, I am beggin' you

Won't you reach out for my dyin' soul

And let me live again.



Hoo, baby, well I tried and I know

I can't make it alone

It's such a hard way to go

I just can't make it alone

Cause there's somethin' in my soul (in my soul)

It will always (always) lead me back to you.



I just can't make it by myself

I just can't make it by myself

I just can't make it by myself.



Cause baby, and I tried and I know

I can't make it alone

And it's such a hard way to go

I just can't make it alone

Well, there's somethin' in my soul

It'll always lead me back to you.



Oh, please help me (please help me)

Well, you know how I need you (you know I need you)

And sayin' that I need you

Well, I just can't make it by myself.



(Just can't make it by myself)

I just can't make it on my own

(Just can't make it on my own)

Ooh, I just can't make it by myself.
