I never meant to take you to the party that night
I never meant to kiss you in the pale moonlight
There’s nothing, nothing I can do about it now
I never meant to love you, But it’s too late now
Baby you can love me like a bowling ball
You can roll me all night and I won’t complain at all
They’ll be times when, when we’re striking every pin
You can set ’em up honey if you’ll knock ’em down again
CHORUS:
Say you’ll never be less than my guiding star
But we’ll never be more than the people we are
And I don’t know why
And I don’t know how
Yeah, I never meant to love you but it’s too late now
You never took yourself for a family man
Now we’re running to the bedroom every chance we can
You draw the shades, you let your hair down, you pull me in
Well I can feel your blood rushing just below your skin
BRIDGE:
I say I’ll always be a prisoner I’ll always be a slave
Cause you gotta love someone in between the grave
Better you, than my own selfish device
Yeah, if you think I don’t need you then baby think twice
CHORUS
Well stick with me darling til the ends of time
When we’ve climbed every mountain that there was to climb
You’ll look at me, you’ll finally see me just as I am
I never meant to love you, Would you love me again?
CHORUS
Well I never meant to take you to the party that night
Yeah I never meant to kiss you in the pale moonlight
And there’s nothing nothing I can do about it now
I never meant to love you but it’s too late now
I never meant to love you but it’s too late now
I never meant to love you but it’s too late now
