Down on My Knees Lyrics

I've told you before
Don't you hear what I say?
I won't take it no more
No more making me stay

Down on my knees
You know I'm down on my knees, yeah
Yes I've been down on my knees, but I'm through begging please
I won't get back on my knees, yeah

Nobody knows what your putting me through
Nobody knows if it's worth it for you
Nobody sees you got me down on my knees, yeah
Well I've been down on my knees, well I'm through begging please
Don't put my back on my knees, yeah

You know that I always loved you
Never placed myself above you
Don't let me go if I wish that I could
Don't tell me no if I wish that you would

Down on my knees
You've brought me down on my knees, yeah
Well I've been down on my knees, but I'm through begging please
Don't put me back on my knees, yeah
You know how I always loved you
There's no time that I have tried to place myself above you

Down on my knees
You know I'm down on my knees, yeah
Well I've been down on my knees, but I'm through beggin' please
Don't put me back on my knees, yeah
Yeah, I've been down on my knees, but I'm through begging please
Don't put me back on my knees

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
