Down on my knees, I’m begging you,
Please, please don’t leave me.

Do you really think she can love you more than me, do you really, really think so
Do you really think she can give you more than me, baby I know she won't
Cause I loved you, unconditionally, I gave you even more than ,I had to give
I was willing for you to die, cause you were more precious to me, than my own life

Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Please, please don’t leave me (x2)

I won’t believe, that you really, really, wanna leave me, just because of her
Have you forgot about, all the things, we’ve been through, she was not the one, who was there for you
See, I loved you unconditionally, I gave you even more than ,I had to give
I was willing for you to die, cause you were more precious to me, than my own life

Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Down on my knees, I’m begging you, Please, please don’t leave me (x2)
