Don't get me wrong
I've played my part and it's over
I'm tired of being strong
For hiding that I'm not yeah
Don't get me wrong
You've played your part and I think you know
This love's for real
It's time to show just how I feel

Time after time I refuse to see why
I can't go on without you by my side

Baby I just wanted you to know that if you care you could be part of my life
Baby don't you know we could be doing this forever and be doing all right yeah
Time after time this moment's been on my mind
Now I've left it behind oh don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong
You bruised my heart and it's aching
It won't take you long
To see that I'm in pain
Don't get me wrong
If you run off now you'd sure be mistaking
This love's so real
And baby this is how I feel yeah

Time after time I've been trying to deny
I can't go on without you by my side

Baby I just wanted you to know that if you care you could be part of my life
Baby don't you know we could be doing this forever and be doing all right yeah
Time after time this moment's been on my mind
Now I've left it behind just don't get me wrong
Don't get me wrong no, no baby oh yeah

Time after time I've been trying to deny
I need the nearness of you to get by

Baby I just wanted you to know that if you care you could be part of my life
Baby don't you know we could be doing this forever and be doing all right no, no
Time after time this moment's been on my mind
Now I've left it behind, don't get me wrong

Baby I just wanted you to know that if you care you could be part of my life
Baby don't you know we could be doing this forever and be doing all right
Time after time this moment's been on my mind now I've left it behind
I've left it behind don't get me wrong
