lyrics

I DIDN’T MEAN IT

WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT

I DON’T WANT TO FIGHT, SIT AROUND LIKE THIS ALL NIGHT
WONDERING WHY OH WHY OH WHY, I CAN’T SEEM TO DO ANYTHING RIGHT
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO CONNECT, BELIEVE ME I DIDN’T THINK IT WOULD GO LIKE THIS

CUZ WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN
AND I DON’T KNOW HOW CUZ I DIDN’T MEAN
WHAT YOU THINK I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT

AND I CAN’T BELIEVE, OH WHAT YOU MUST BE THINKING OF ME
I'VE BEEN WAITING WAITING WAITING, FOR YOU TO SEE THINGS LIKE I SEE
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO CONNECT, BELIEVE ME I DIDN’T WANT IT TO GO LIKE THIS

OH BABY BUT WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN
AND I DON’T KNOW HOW CUZ I DIDN’T MEAN
WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT

EVERY TIME TURNS OUT THE SAME, CRAZY BOY I FEEL INSANE
WHY MUST YOU READ ME THIS WAY
IT’S LIKE WE’RE SPEAKING A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LANGUAGE

CAN WE TURN IT AROUND, LET’S NOT STAY HERE CULTIVATING FROWN AFTER FROWN
I KNOW WE CAN GET BACK TO COMMON GROUND

CUZ WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID, OH IT'S IN YOUR HEAD
YOU KNOW BABY I, I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID
YOU KNOW I, I'VE BEEN MISREAD I'VE BEEN MISREAD
WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN AND INSIDE OUT
AND I DON'T KNOW HOW, CUZ WHAT I SAID IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT
