There's a first time for everything
Its definitely one of them nights
I knew when I looked in his eyes
That he was gonna be trouble for me
I never wanted to lie, I knew that my baby would cry
If he knew what we were doing
But if his love don't pass the test
I gotta get it from somewhere else
But I'm grown and I need my man
Hope he understands forgive me baby

I've gotta take a chance tonight
So I'm doing me, myself an
I Can't wait no more
Sitting all alone
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
I Can't wait no more
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me

Bin along time since I
Did something good for myself
But why should I be put through hell
Well hes doing what he wanna do
Ive finally found somebody else
Who with me makes me wanna feel
Things that I've been missing so long
And his love always passed the test
But it's a shame I had to look somewhere else
Well I'm gone and I need a man
Forgive me baby

I've gotta take a chance tonight
So I'm doing me, myself an
I Can't wait no more
Sitting all alone
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
I Can't wait no more
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me

Forgive me but I need to be loved to
Forgive me but I cant wait around for you
Forgive me if I found a man who understands
Just what I need
Forgive me but I need to be loved to
Forgive me but I cant wait around for you
Forgive me if I found a man who understands
Forgive me baby

I've gotta take a chance tonight
So I'm doing me, myself an
I Can't wait no more
Sitting all alone
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
Hope you'll forgive me (oh oh)
I Can't wait no more
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me

I've gotta take a chance tonight
So I'm doing me, myself an
I can't wait no more
Sitting all alone
Man I really hope
Hope you'll forgive me
