Didn't Mean To Do It (lyrics)

Am I a fool if I knew all along you were going right and I was going wrong
I see it now that I've had time to clear my head
I shoulda laid all alone in my bed
See I've been running from one man to the next
My body and soul need a little time to rest
And it hurts me so bad cause you've been so good to me
But I've gotta go now it's time for me to leave

Hook
Well I didn't mean to do it I'm sorry that I blew it I
I said it was forever
And I hate to walk away but I can't stay cause it ain't getting no better
And deep inside I knew it I shoulda listened to it but I couldn't get it together
Well I didn't I didn't mean to do it

Trust me there were no tricks up my sleeve
Probably the hardest thing for you to hear or believe
But the longer I stay the more that I still need my space
But I still love you I'll always love you forgive when I say
That I've been running from one man to the next
My body my soul need a little time to rest
And it hurts me so bad cause you've been so good to me
But I've gotta go now it's time for me to leave

Hook

Bridge
Would you rather I would you rather I lie disguise and live an untrue life with you
I don't think so
Maybe this is my time to grow as a woman and finally overcomes my obstacles
Yes I think so

Hook
