david ruffin
oh this heart of mine
carries a heavy load
when i think about
how i’ve hurt you so

i’ve caused you misery
a feeling of guilt
how it tortures me
and only you my darlin’

a moment of weakness darlin’
caused me to stray
your trust in me dear

david ruffin
when i look
look into your eyes
i can see the hurt baby
that you feel inside
although i hurt you baby
you never once complained
it makes me feel sweet darlin’
that much more ashamed
tears of guilt tears of guilt
runnin’ down my face
tears that only you baby
only you can erase

when all your love darlin’

this guilty feeling
tearin’ me apart
with every step i make
every breath i take
i’ll make it up to you
i’ll make it up to you
undo the wrong i’ve done
undo the wrong i’ve done
i’ve been unfaithful
i know it’s true
but i’ll make it up to you baby
the temptations
all all i need
is just to hear you say
you’ll forgive me
forgive me baby
all all i need
to have you touch my hand
