Lyrics I Forgot To Be Your Lover - Al Kooper

I Forgot To Be Your Lover

Have I told you
Lately that I love you
Well, if I didn’t
Darling, I’m sorry
Did I reach out and
Hold you in my loving arm
Oh, when you needed me
Now I realize
That you need love too
And I’ll spend my life
Making love to you
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I’m sorry, so sorry
Have I taken the
Time to share with you
All the burdens, a love affair
And have I done the
Little simple things to show you
Just how much I care
Oh, I been working for you
Doing all I can but
Work all the time
Didn’t make me a man
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
And I’m sorry, I’ll make it
Up to you somehow, baby
I forgot to be your lover
Gonna make it up to you somehow
Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, baby
I forgot to be your lover
If you’ll forgive me
I’ll make it up to you
I’m only a man and I forgot…
