I DIDN’T MEAN TO
INTRO (Telephone answering machine: Female voice)
“I just can’t come to the phone right now. Please leave a message. ”
VERSE1
I didn’t mean to catch you by surprise.
I didn’t mean to catch you when you dry your eyes.
I didn’t mean to wake you while you sleep.
I didn’t mean to take from you the dreams you keep.
VERSE2
I didn’t mean to sweep you off your feet.
I didn’t mean the promises that I can’t keep.
I didn’t mean to give you every part of me.
I didn’t mean to take from you what’s meant to be.
CHORUS1
Day after day I wait for the call.
Night after night I trip and I fall.
You gotta know the point of it all … is …
I didn’t mean to.
VERSE3
I didn’t mean to love just once or twice.
I didn’t mean to make you feel as cold as ice.
I didn’t mean to make you lose your mind.
I didn’t mean to break the ties that really bind.
VERSE4
I didn’t mean to hurt you for heaven’s sake.
I didn’t mean to take from you what angels make.
I didn’t mean to steal the love you miss.
I didn’t mean to take from you, your first kiss.
CHORUS2
Day after day I wait for the call.
Night after night I trip and I fall.
You gotta know the point of it all … is …
I didn’t mean to.
VOCAL BRIDGE
The curtain’s drawn.
I gave up the light.
I can’t get up.
I give up the fight.
I didn’t mean but – For heaven’s sake.
To take from you what the angels make.
No, I didn’t mean to …
Love you last night.
CHORUS3
Day after day I wait for the call.
Night after night I trip and I fall.
You gotta know the point of it all … is …
I didn’t mean to. (I didn’t mean to.)
I didn’t mean to. (I didn’t mean to.) |
