You Told Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You told me you'd always stay, you told me
You told me you'd never stray, you told me
All these things you said you said sincerely
Still I am leaving you in spite of what you told me
[Verse 2]
I've heard things that did not match what you told me
And of your love that would not last, as you told me
Forewarned is forearmed, it hurts, I'm leaving
I may be wrong, I can't love what I'm just hearing
[Bridge]
Times have made me shy
Of all the things you're saying
Time have made me shy
Of girls and all the games that they are playing
[Verse 3]
Someday I may see the truth of what you told me
I may find I left too soon and that you told me
Only things that you were honestly feeling
But I must have more to love than what you told me
[Outro]
I must have more to love than what you told me
Yes, I must have more to love than what you told me
I must have more to love than what you told me
Yes, I must have more to love than what you told me
