Lyrics
It Ain't You It's Me
How was I to know it could go so wrong?
I thought we had something goin' on
Put my ring inside my coat
Pinned my heart onto my sleeve
Got down on one knee, if you know what I mean
So I cleared my throat
Reached into my coat
But before I could speak my baby spoke..Mm Mm..
She said..
It Ain't You It's Me, I just wanna be free
You've done nothing wrong, but my love has gone
You're a lovely man you need to understand
It Ain't You, It's Me, It Ain't You, It's Me
Now, I never understood a word my focus wasn't right
I felt like I was dreaming though I'd been awake all night
With the ring inside my coat, A lump inside my throat
I tried to find the words again before my baby spoke
So I cleared my head, and cleared my throat
But before I could speak my baby spoke..Mm Mm..
She said..
It Ain't You It's Me, I just wanna be free
You've done nothing wrong, but my love has gone
You're a lovely man you need to understand
It Ain't You It's Me
It Ain't You It's Me, I just wanna be free
Though we get along, I feel I don't belong
Please don't blame yourself, there ain't nobody else
Baby can't you see
It Ain't You It's Me, It Ain't You, It's Me... Alright..
Well, I thought the night would end with a kiss, but I never expected this
It Ain't You It's Me, I just wanna be free
You're a lovely man you need to understand
It Ain't You It's Me
It Ain't You It's Me, I just wanna be free
Please don't blame yourself, there ain't nobody else
It Ain't You It's Me, It Ain't You It's Me, It Ain't You It's Me
