Listen, babe I think it's time for me to come clean I mean, I haven't been the most faithful I don't know how else to say this plain and simple I've been cheating, believe me, this isn't easy Especially as you've been so good to me The hardest thing I've ever done is telling you 'you're not the only one' Just understand that, you need a man not an ignorant And like a boy, I toyed with innocence This double life ain't worth livin', I've given more to her and I apologise
And it's all part of the game It's just the same ol' thing with a different name And you can try and drown the pain But we both swim too well to submerge ourselves And I'm tired of the shame of being a fool too cool to maintain two dames And all I need is time Please forgive me, darlin' the blame's all mine
When I come home to you with open arms And this smell of alcohol on my overcoat and cigarette smoke I know you've been sceptical and I've played it off like you're delusional But the fact is that I'm losing you And I'm scared she doesn't want me The way I need her to, no She doesn't want me The way I need her to I'm pleading with the judge on my knees God, please, make these charges go away
And it's all part of the game It's just the same ol' thing with a different name And you can try and drown the pain But we both swim too well to submerge ourselves And I'm tired of the shame of being a fool too cool to maintain two dames And all I need is time Please forgive me, darlin' the blame's all mine
Girl, I promise I will do my best to impress the jury 'Cos when the smoke settles And one of us falls to the dirt, it was worth all of the hurt And if not, let's cut our losses 'Cos you crossed the line, thinking I'd choose you over music? That's just stupid This whole situation's bogus, especially since I'm so focussed From the beginning to the end 'are we enemies or friends?' Unfortunately, this is hopeless Take my best and struggle home for you Struggle, but I'm still here holding you I'm tellin' the men, stand up Put your hands up if you understand what I'm going through
And it's all part of the game It's just the same ol' thing with a different name And you can try and drown the pain But we both swim too well to submerge ourselves And I'm tired of the shame of being a fool too cool to maintain two dames And all I need is time Please forgive me, darlin' the blame's all mineTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
