And though I've made you cry
Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
And try to close your eyes to thoughtless things I do
It's so hard for me to say the things I really feel
Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
Think of me through tender tears
Bella Linda, try and understand
Bella Linda, try and understand
We've had bad times through the years
The times that I let you down and I'll never change
The dreams that don't come true 'cause I'll never change
And try to close your eyes
Oh I need you, please don't say goodbye
Believe me I try, if you go away, you know that I'll die
If I could I'd chase away the pain your eyes reveal
Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
Oh I love you, please don't say goodbye
Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can
The pain your eyes reveal foolish things I've done
Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can
Believe me I try, if you go away, you know that I'll die
Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can
Bella Linda, try and understand
