All I Need Lyrics - Gentleman Ruffin - David Ruffin

(Forgive this fool my darling) 

Oh this heart of mine 

Carries a heavy load 

When I think about 

How I've hurt you so (I'm so ashamed) 

After you've been 

Been so good to me 

I've been unfaithful darling 

I've caused you misery (I'm so ashamed) 

A feeling of guilt 

Oh it tortures me 

And only you my darling 

Oh can set me free (I'm so ashamed) 

And darling all all I need 

Is just to hear you say 

You'll forgive me 

Forgive me baby 

All all I need 

To have you touch my hand 

Say you'll understand baby 

A moment of weakness darling (forgive this fool, my darling) 

Caused me to stray 

Your trust in me dear I threw away 

When I look look into your eyes 

I can see the hurt baby 

That you feel inside (I'm so ashamed) 

Although I've hurt you baby 

You've never once complained 

It makes me feel sweet darling 

That much more ashamed (I'm so ashamed) 

Tear of guilt tears of guilt running down my face 

Tears that only you baby 

Only you can erase (I'm so ashamed) 

And darling all all I need 

Is just to hear you say 

You'll forgive me 

Forgive me baby 

All all I need 

To have you touch my hand 

Say you'll understand
