When you say those words, those three little words |
|
You're in at the deep end |
|
Give up the night times, give up the high times |
|
Give up the weekend |
|
Give up the chance to be your own man |
|
Let the feeling take over |
|
The only way out is to lie if you can |
|
But you don't have the knack |
|
And you'll go crawling back, saying |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it |
|
I felt tied down, my pride down |
|
That I put that lie down |
|
The prize now for you is me |
|
Well I was like you and all I could do was |
|
Give up and surrender |
|
The people can trace what they did in my face |
|
But they're just pretenders |
|
They told me mercenary action today |
|
Is a line as simple and pure |
|
But what if you found you made a mistake |
|
The medicine's worse than the cure |
|
And you'll be back for sure, saying |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it |
|
I felt tied down, my pride down |
|
That I put that lie down |
|
The prize now for you is me |
|
Give up the chance to be your own man |
|
Let the feeling take over |
|
The only way out is to lie if you can |
|
But you don't have the knack |
|
And you'll go crawling back, saying |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game |
|
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it |
|
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it |
|
I felt tied down, my pride down |
|
That I put that lie down |
|
The prize now for you is me |
