Here I Go Again
Mario · Here I Go Again [2005]
You said you hated me
(But I keep coming back)
Treated me ungratefully
(But I keep coming back)
You didn't appreciate me
(But I keep coming back)
You said you'd never love me
(But I keep coming back)
People told me to leave you alone
(But I keep coming back)
Crazy messages on my phone
(But I keep coming back)
O tell me where I went wrong
To make these feelings so strong
Baby here I go again...
(to make me feel like this)
Was it the way you walk
(to make me feel like this)
Was it the way you talk
(to make me feel like this)
Was it the way you kiss
(to make me feel like this)
Was it the way you love
(to make me feel like this)
Was it the way you hug me
(to make me feel like this)
O tell me were I went wrong
To make these feelings so strong
Baby here I go again...
[Chorus]
Back to you girl
Cuz you know I need your loving
(You know I do)
I can't keep running away
From all this kissing and hugging
(I don't know why)
I keep coming back to
All this love and hate
Am I crazy?
Have I lost myself?
Is this a sin?
Baby here I go again...
I gave you all of me
(girl you know I did)
I gave you everything
(girl you know I did)
Even that diamond ring
(girl you know I did)
It didn't mean a thing
(girl you know I did)
What about them shopping sprees
(girl you know I did)
The trips over seas
(girl you know I did)
O tell me where I went wrong
Baby!
Baby here I go again...
(here I go again)
I spite of yesterday
(here I go again)
Black with you today
(here I go again)
I don't understand
(here I go again)
Why I'm trying to be your man
(here I go again)
Baby girl tell me
(here I go again)
O tell me where I went wrong
To make these feelings so strong
Baby here I go again...
[Chorus]
Back to you girl
Cuz you know I need your loving
(you know I do)
I can't keep running away
From all this kissing and hugging
(I don't know why)
I keep coming back to
All this love and hate
Am I crazy?
Have I lost myself?
Is this a sin?
Oh don't you try to judge me
I know you've been
In these shoes before
Can somebody tell me?
Tell me if I'm loosing
My mind for sure
Baby here I go again...
[Chorus]
Back to you girl
Cuz you know I need your loving
(you know I do)
I can't keep running away
From all this kissing and hugging
(I don't know why)
I keep coming back to
All this love and hate
Am I crazy?
Have I lost myself?
Is this a sin?
Baby here I go again...
