[Verse 1]
Slipped away like grains of sand
Couldn't hold you long enough in my hands
Can't remember how I went from good to bad
Now I just reminisce, I just reminisce on everything we had

[Pre-Chorus]
The times you used to call me "Baby"
Driving in your old Mercedes
That fells like a distant memory now

[Chorus]
If I had one chance to tell you how I loved you
I'd be down on my knees
If I had one moment
Just to let you know what you meant to me

[Post-Chorus]
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen

[Verse 2]
I never meant for it to end this way (End this way)
I wish that I could say this face to face (Face to face)
Holding on for hope your mind would change (Mind would change)
'Cause I want you back, I need you back to take this pain away (Want you back)

[Pre-Chorus]
The times you used to call me "Baby"
Driving in your old Mercedes
That fells like a distant memory now

[Chorus]
If I had one chance to tell you how I loved you
I'd be down on my knees
If I had one moment
Just to let you know what you meant to me

[Post-Chorus]
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen

[Bridge]
My only request, I wish you the best
But I can't get no sleep, I can't get no rest
My head is a mess, between "No" and "Yes"
Right now you're heavy on my mind
I don't wanna guess what you're thinking tonight
I want the facts, I don't want no more lies
I just wanna a chance to make it right
I just wanna a chance to make it right

[Chorus]
If I had one chance to tell you how I loved you
I'd be down on my knees
If I had one moment
Just to let you know what you meant to me

[Post-Chorus]
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen
I'm begging for forgiveness
If only you would listen

Dua Lipa

Dua Lipa is a British singer-songwriter.

Born in London on August 22, 1995, she is the daughter of Albanian rock artist Dukagjin Lipa. She moved to Kosovo at the age of 11 before returning to the UK at age 15 to attend Sylvia Young Theatre School part-time. Posting covers of artists such as Nelly Furtado, Chance The Rapper and Rihanna, she signed to Warner Records (Vertigo/Captiol for Germany, Austria and Switzerland) and released her debut single, “New Love.” Its follow-up, “Be The One,” became her breakthrough single in mainland Europe. She was also shortlisted for the BBC Sound of 2016 list and was nominated for the prestigious BRITs Critics Choice Award.

In 2016, she broke through in the UK with “Hotter Than Hell,” and scored her first Billboard Hot 100-charting single with “Blow Your Mind (Mwah).” Collaborations with Martin Garrix and Sean Paul on their worldwide hits “Scared to Be Lonely” and “No Lie”“ followed in 2017. Her self-titled debut album was released on June 2, debuting at #5 on the UK Album Charts and at #86 on the Billboard 200 and receiving positive reviews from critics, many praising Dua Lipa’s vocals and confidence. The album’s sixth single, “New Rules,” became a worldwide hit, topping the charts in the UK and remaining in the top 5 for 10 consecutive weeks. In early 2018, “IDGAF” was released to similar success, while Dua won two BRIT Awards, including Best Breakthrough Act. She saw continued success with her Calvin Harris collaboration, “One Kiss,” and closed out the year with a Complete Edition reissue of her album.
