have mercy baby

my heart is breaking

you may think i'm crazy

but i've had all that i can take.

and i'm ready to cry

i'm ready to fall on my knees

and i really don't  know why

i let you have the best of me.



baby, can't you see i'm falling harder

into this black hole

why is this world so unforgiving?

and can't you see

my heart's breaking faster

than you ever thought possible

and i feel like i'm not living

anymore

i think i've died for you.



please just grant me one wish

don't just walk away

give me one last sweet kiss

and then you can go on your way

but remember my words

when you're alone at night

yeah, remember my tears

and how i was willing to fight.



baby, can't you see i'm falling harder

into this black hole 

why is this world so unforgiving?

and can't you see

my heart's breaking faster

than you ever thought possible

and i feel like i'm not living

anymore

oh, i think i've died for you.



yeah, i think you took my last breath

when you gave me that last kiss

and i think my heart just stopped beating

when you told me that you're leaving

yeah, i think i've died for you

i would've lied for you

i was willing to fight for you

but it's too late for that

i've already died for you.
