There's a lot of things I want, a lot of things that I'd like to be
But girl, I don't foresee a rags-to-riches story for me
There's just one little thing I've got to make from you
There's just one ride I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you
And baby, baby, just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to the good thing I've found
Don't let me down
Baby, say that you'd be staying, cause I couldn't face the day
If you weren't here by my side
And if you went away, then I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on schemes, cause everyone fell through
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you
And baby, baby, just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to the good thing I've found
Don't let me down
Baby, say that you'd be staying
Better part of girl, ain't so easy to find
But if you stand by me, girl, I'll keep peace of mind
I can't give you the world, but I will call for you
I will call for you all my life
Don't leave me, please don't leave me
Just visit for me
Just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to the good thing I've found
Don't let me down
Baby, say that you'd be staying
Oh, yeah
Just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to the good thing I've found
