Never my Intention
It was never my intention
To break a woman's heart
It was never my meaning
To pull it all apart
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
With you
It was not for want of asking
You asked me through and through
It never seemed important
To me; it did to you
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Words always seemed to fail me
I couldn't express myself
And now you're going to leave me
Alone and on the shelf
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
It seemed to serve no purpose
Back and forth for hours and hours
Let's drop the whole pretension
Live for what is truly ours
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
To break a woman's heart
It was never my meaning
To pull it all apart
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
With you
It was not for want of asking
You asked me through and through
It never seemed important
To me; it did to you
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Words always seemed to fail me
I couldn't express myself
And now you're going to leave me
Alone and on the shelf
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
It seemed to serve no purpose
Back and forth for hours and hours
Let's drop the whole pretension
Live for what is truly ours
I didn't know otherwise
What else could I do?
I didn't know otherwise
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
Couldn't stay with you
