The subject is a man who realizes that his lady left him because he's selfish and doesn't think of anyone but himself, and he's admitting that he feels shame for his actions in an attempt to win her back. The speaker's attitude towards this is sorrowful and pleading, since he's sad that he lost her and sad that he behaved in such a way as to make her leave. He seems rather pleading in that he keeps saying things that show that he hopes she can believe that he's changed and feels sorry for what he's done and will eventually take him back.
