There´s a lot of things I want, a lot of things that I´d like to be
But girl I don´t foresee a rags to riches story for me
I´ve given up on schemes cause every one fell through
I´ve given up so many things, don´t ask me to give up on you
And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don´t let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don´t let me down
Baby say that you´ll be staying

I couldn´t face the day if you weren´t here by my side
And if you went away then I´d be left without any pride
There´s just one little dream I´ve got to make come true
There´s just one round I´ve got to win
I can´t be a loser with you
And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don´t let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don´t let me down
Baby say that you´ll be staying

Every pot of gold ain´t so easy to find
And if you´ll stand by me
Girl I´ll give you some of mine
I can´t give you the world
But I´ll work hard for you girl
Well I´ll work hard
Every day baby don´t leave me
Now say you won´t leave me
Do this for me baby

Once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don´t let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don´t let me down
Baby say that
