it took me twenty years to stand up straight and tall
it took me all of twenty seconds for everything to fall
i don't worry about my pride anymore
'cause pride is something i just can't afford

i'd go beggin' in the rain
if i could spare you any pain
when it comes to you i have no shame
no shame no shame

there's no life by your side i wouldn't live
there's no sin you could commit that i would not forgive
i don't try to understand anymore
'cause i just know my world begins at your door

if i could keep you from the cold
if i could make your tears my own
i'd do anything i have no shame

no shame for the first time in my life
no shame to get it right for you i wouldn't think twice
no shame nothin' i won't sacrifice
there's nothing i won't do baby
to get you through the night

fallin' fallin'
i'll be there to reach you baby
to catch you when you're cryin'
i'll be callin' i'll be callin'
with a love for you that no name
i have no shame

i'd go beggin' in the rain
if i could spare you any pain
when it comes to you i have no shame

no shame for the first time in my life
no shame to get it right for you i wouldn't think twice
no shame nothin' i won't sacrifice
there's nothing i won't do baby
to get you through the night
