Beggin'

Put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin'

Beggin', beggin', ooh
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, darlin'

Riding high when I was king

Played it hot and fast 'cause I had everything

Walked away wondering then
But easy come and easy go and it would end
So why every time I bleed you let me go?
Every time I reach you get me low
Every time I seek you let me know
But I planted the seed, just let me go
I'm on my knees while I'm beggin'
'Cause I don't wanna lose
I got my arms so spread, I hope that my heart gets fed
Matter of fact, girl, I'm beggin'

Beggin', beggin', ooh
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, darlin'

I need you to understand (Yeah)
Tried so hard to be your man (Hey)
The kind of man you want in the end (Whoa)
Only then can I begin to live again

An empty shell I used to be
The shadow of my life was hangin' over me

A broken man that I don't know

Won't even stand the devil's chance to win my soul
Why we doin'? What we chasin'?
Why the bottom? Why the basement?
Why we got good shit, don't embrace it?

Why the feel for the need to replace me?
You on the wrong way track from the good
I only painted a picture, did it when we could
React like a heart and attach where it should
You done gave it away, you had it 'til you took the pic
But I keep walkin' on, keep hopin' dogs
Keep hopin' for that the card is yours
Keep holdin' some hope 'cause I don't wanna live in a broken home
Girl, I'm beggin'

Beggin', beggin', ooh
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, darlin'

I'm fighting hard to hold my own (Yeah, hold my own)
Just can't make it all alone (All alone)
I'm holdin' on, I can't fall back (No way, no)
I'm just too calm, but too afraid to beg

Beggin', beggin', ooh
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, darlin'
Beggin', beggin', ooh
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, darlin'
