Workin' my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
Yea I'm workin' my way back to you babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Paying every day.

When you were so in love with me
I played around like I was free
Though I could have my cake and eat it too.
But how I cried over losin' you.

See me down and out
But I ain't about to go
Living me life without you.
For every day I made you cry
I'm paying girl until the day that I die

I'll keep workin' my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
Yea I'm workin' my way back to you babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Paying every day

I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
But if I'd been a man in reality
You'd still be here babe loving me

Now the nights are long and lonely
And I ain't to strong babe
I just miss you so.
But you're too proud
You won't give in
But then I think about all I could win.

I keep workin' my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm workin' my way back to you babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Paying every day

Yea yea yea

Workin' my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm workin' my way back to you babe
And the happiness that died
(Ohhh how I cried)

Workin' my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
