How can I?

How can I? I listened to all your storiesall those bitter memorieshow your 3 exes broke your heart made you cry and tore you apartThe first cheated you moved on still believing in loveYou gave your life to the second and he left when push came to shoveThe third was no way better because you found out he was a playerI bet they all spat lyrics to youput on a show which seem real and there was nothing you could doNow you believe all men dogs right?Well ain't that contrite?There’s a saying that goes don't let the past ruin your futureYou are wounded so let me be your sutureI don’t know if I can say anything which they hadn’t already saidAnd maybe their main purpose was to get you in bedI want to be the fourth and last Let me close off the cheating episodeI promise my love for you won’t corrodeI can’t blame you for the way you now look at menI cant blame you if you think I’m one of them who will just break your heart againbut I’m begging you please don’t let good suffer for the badbecause if you give me a chance I’ll be the best you've ever hadBut let me prove my love to youwhether it may take five six or ten yearsjust spending my time with you will doI would say I love you but I bet the previous three already didand now they've all disappeared off the gridI know my words wont mean anythingSo I’ll let my actions speak and when you’re ready I will give you a ringDo not give up on love pleaseall you have experienced so far is just diseaseGive me a chance to show you what love should be likeJust give me chance, I may be a tikeBut I promise I won’t make you cry nor would you have to say goodbyeAll I’m asking is How can I?
