Coming Clean |
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 mine |
