oh it hurts me baby,
to finally understand,
did i try too hard,
tryin' to be your man?
oh it hurts baby,
to finally realize,
that i pushed too hard,
maybe made you cry.
-
See I saw you cookin',
then in a real forward way,
i tried to make love happen,
all in one day.
-
All in one day,
when we were so good,
away back then,
gave it all away, (C G)
with a wish and a could.
-
now i can wield a hammer,
and i can feel afraid,
thrown into the slammer,
for the fear of getting laid
laid into the dirt,
or burned up in the air,
even as i worry,
you won't be there.
-
All in one day,
when we were so good,
away back then,
did i give my life away, (C G)
for a wish and a could.
-
when you didn't call me,
i thought that you'd forgot,
you might just have been thinkin',
i was something i was not.
Well babe I ain't no monster,
though i came on like a cure,
i can't defend my methods,
but my intentions are pure.
Yes i called again,
and baby that was wrong,
missin' all the fish in the sea,
now i get to sing this song.
yeah i kept on pushin',
i see now that i was wrong,
so i'll have to love you,
only with a song.
-
cause i find you're married,
yeah you've got a kid,
well that fellow musta loved you
better than i ever did.
-
i can hold a mirror,
yeah and i can read the lines,
i think i swam into a corner,
for the sake of feelin' fine.
-
All in one day,
when we were so good,
away back then,
did i spend my life away, (C G)
for a wish and a could.
