[Verse 1]
Girl I must have been crazy to say that it was over
I had to be a fool to yell out we were through
And now I'm all alone and feeling down and out baby
When I never meant for this to end
It was so, so crazy of me
Sometimes we say things that we really don't mean
Well I'm sorry baby
Bring your loving back to me

[Chorus]
I can't sleep babe
I can't think babe
I can't live babe
Without you in my life
I can't go on babe
This is my song baby
Don't wanna do nothing if I, go away baby
And I can't do nothing if you're, not around

[Verse 2]
Though I must admit that things got out of hand
When you told me that he was just a friend
I should've had my trust in you
From the very start darling
Cause I never meant for this to end
How can we get it back again?
Oh sometimes a man can say things
That he really don't mean
Well I'm sorry baby
Bring your loving back to me

[Chorus]
I can't sleep babe
I can't think babe
I can't live babe
Without you in my life
I can't go on babe
This is my song baby
Don't wanna do nothing if I, go away baby
And I can't do nothing if you're, not around

[Bridge]
Baby, can we meet somewhere and talk about it?
Oh baby, can we work it out?
I'm not gonna let you go my baby
Before I let you know that

[Chorus]
I can't sleep babe
I can't think babe
I can't live babe
Without you in my life
I can't go on babe
This is my song baby
Don't wanna do nothing if I, go away baby
And I can't do nothing if you're, not around

Baby, I'm sorry
Can't you find a way to
Somehow forgive me?
I never meant to hurt you

Somebody take my head off
'Cause I never meant to hurt you, babe
I know I don't deserve another chance
But I had to say it anyway

I can't sleep, I can't think
I can't eat, I'm so weak
And I won't breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again

It was such a silly move I made
I'm the only one who truly loves me
Took advantage of the love you gave
I turn around the truth, now look at me

I can't sleep, I can't think
I can't eat, I'm so weak
And I can't breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again

Na na na
Na na na

Now I'm the guy you read about
In those freaky magazines
Sometimes I can't believe my ears
And what they say about me

Who gives a fuck 'bout what they think
Is what my old G used to say
You just keep on doing your own thing, boy
And sing your praises up that way

And you'll sleep, and you'll think
And you'll eat, won't be weak
And you will breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again

Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na

You'll breathe again, breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again
You'll breathe again, breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again
You'll breathe again, breathe again
Breathe again, breathe again

You'll breathe, you'll sleep
You'll think

Na na na
