love you back lyrics

All I could see was her cigarette burnin'
She only smokes when she's sad
All I could hear was that engine turnin'
That's when I knew it was bad

She's never made it as far as the car before
She got my attention when she slammed that Chevy door

I best be hittin' my knees beggin' and pleadin'
Choking down some pride before she drops it into drive, I can't have that
Best be foldin' my hands for one more chance
Baby don't go, let me love you back

Trippin' and stumblin', barefooted on the gravel
Fightin' my way through the rain
I bang on the window oh, but she won't have it
She just keeps lookin' the other way

She wipes away her tears and the steam from the glass
Got her hand on the shifter and her foot on the gas

I best be hittin' my knees beggin' and pleadin'
Choking down some pride before she drops it into drive, I can't have that
Best be foldin' my hands for one more chance
Baby don't go, let me love you back

Oh, I hope it's not too late
But now I see that all you've ever done
Is put your heart and soul into loving me
And I know it's time I did my part

Down on my knees beggin' and pleadin'
I put away my pride, yeah
Baby, give me your hand
One more chance, don't go, don't go

Let me love you back
Let me love you back

Aw, let me love you back
Aw now, now, now, let me love you back
Let me love you back
