Well I've come to know the look on your face

When you're lying about where you've been
Or how much you spent

I know when you will
Raise your fingers to your mouth
As if to wipe away the shame

It's not a game, I know you feel bad

If you ask for my forgiveness
If you call my name I will come

If you ask for my love I will give you some

Some day I know you will understand

Some day you'll finally realize
What you're doing to yourself

If you ask for my forgiveness
If you call my name I will come

If you ask for my love I will give you some

We've been dancing to that same old song

Over and over again

I want to be your lover

I don't want to be your policeman

So tonight when you finally
Make your way back to our door
I'll let you sleep it off

Like I did the night before

And in the morning I will get you up

And I will smile just when you want me to

'Cause I'm all you have

When you ask for my forgiveness
When you call my name I will come

When you ask for my love I will give you some
