[Chorus Intro]
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
[Verse 1: Shawn]
I know this was my fault but
How much should it cost
To make things right
Do I have to pay for life
We all fall short sometimes
And I'm guilty of that crime
But I just wanna make you see
That you can still believe in me
[Chorus]
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
[Verse 2: Wanya]
Speak to me, let me know how you feel
If you feel like you can hold on and be strong
I will never leave you lonely
I cry sometimes 'cause I make you cry
And that ain't right
I won't make the same mistake twice
Baby please forgive me
[Chorus]
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
[Bridge: Nathan]
No I can't erase the wrong I've done
But I hope you can give me another chance
'Cause if you were me you would want the same
And I'd give that chance to you
[Chorus]
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
[Outro]
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
I know, I make mistakes
I am what I am
I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me
