Lyrics

I like the way you wanted me
Every night for so long baby
And I like the way you needed me
Every time things got rocky
I was believing in you
Was I mistaken do you say?
Do you say what you mean
I want our love to last forever
But I'd rather you be mean
Than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth
And have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow
At least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow, no
I like the way you'd hold me
Every night for so long baby
I like the way you'd say my name
In the middle of the night
While you were sleeping
I was believing in you
Was I mistaken, do you mean
Do you mean what you say?
When you say our love could last forever
Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow, no
You would run around and lead me on forever
While I wait at home still thinking we're together
I wanted our love to last forever
I was believing in you
I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
Than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
Baby, don't you break my heart slow
