(Lalomie Washburn)
|
I never meant a single thing when you tried it
|
You know it, I felt it, I liked it, I did it
|
I never meant to put it there but somewhere In dispair
|
It got moved into view, then I liked it
|
I never meant a single word when I said I could love you
|
I thought it, I heard it, I used it
|
I never meant a single beat of my heart to be yours
|
'Cause I knew, if you knew, you'd abuse it
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
There's a message in the middle of the bottom
|
You see 'em, you love 'em, you got 'em
|
There's a proper time to pick 'em when they're fallen
|
Just listen, you'll hear 'em a-callin
|
There's a special way to know you got his lovin'
|
Can't you feel it, you ought to, you taught him
|
There's a special time for lovin' and another time
|
For huggin and a lot of time to leave him alone
|
|
I have a feelin' deep inside that I've got you
|
I'll keep you. why not? it'll make me feel better
|
If there's a woman on this earth who should love you
|
It's me boy, don't fight it, admit it, you love it
|
If you think there's someone else who can move you
|
I'll lose you, no problem, you're free to go get her
|
I just refuse to let a lady step in on my show
|
If you choose, do it now or forget it
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I never meant a single thing when you tried it
|
You know it, I felt it, I liked it, I did it
|
I never meant to put it there but somewhere In dispair
|
It got moved into view, then I liked it
|
I never meant a single word when I said I could love you
|
I thought it, I heard it, I used it
|
I never meant a single beat of my heart to be yours
|
'Cause I knew, if you knew, you'd abuse it
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
There's a special time for lovin' and another time
|
For huggin and a lot of time to leave him alone.
