Story Behind The Song

A man has taken his woman for granted and not treated her the way she ought to be treated. She is prepared to live without him, despite the fact that she still loves him. He then realizes how much he too loves her and tries to get her back, with a promise that 'this time round' it will be better.

Song Description

This song is all about how you don't know the good thing you have until you lose it!

Lyrics

Verse 1
I realize that love is not a game that people play
But I found out too late and now you've turned and gone away
I see you all alone in all the places that we'd go
I see the pain and sadness that you're trying not to show
Now I just want a second chance
To mend the bridges from the past
I need to hold you close to me
And whisper tenderly

Chorus
Baby it's alright, you don't have to be alone
Baby it's alright, the past is dead and gone
If you reach out to me
Take a chance then you will see
That I'll show you this time 'round
How love's supposed to be

Verse 2
I can't pretend that all is well since you have set me free
The good times that we had are stored inside my memory
But I believe it's not too late, I know that I can be
The man that you've been searching for, he's here inside of me
So I'll just go on praying for
A chance to talk with you once more
I'll say the words you'll love to hear
I'll say them loud and clear

Chorus
Baby it's alright....

Bridge
Now you say you've heard it all before, these words are nothing new
But I'll say them to you just once more
And hope that they'll get through
I know that I have been a fool
I'm not a perfect man
But I wont repeat those same mistakes
My love is in your hands

Chorus
Baby it's alright....

Love's meant for you and me
