Baby, don't you wanna try
To say hello before we say goodbye
Cuz this love was giving me a thrill
Guess we climbed the mountain
Before the hill

And baby, when those four letter words
Came climbing out
Like we'd endure
Maybe we just gotta take it slow
And rewind a little
I don't know...

Chorus

Baby, have mercy
Baby, have mercy on me
Darling when I come home
Will you open the door
And let me in

Well I don't wanna be the man
That you let slip through those precious hands
And darling when you said those loving words
Did you mean it baby?
Well, you got some nerve

So you say you never lied
But that you need to spend some lonely time
And I know I may sound an angry man
But I've been there before
So I don't understand

Chorus

Bridge

Sometimes when I look in your eyes
And I want to see, forever
So why tempt fate to turn around
So that we can't be together

Baby have mercy
Baby have mercy on me
Darling when I come home
Will you open the door and let me in
Darling when I come home
Won't you open the door and let me in
