You Were Only Teasing Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once i held you in my arms and you thrilled me with your charms
But i knew you were only teasing me
And you said that you'd be true but i knew just what you'd do
You'd break my heart and then you'd say we're through
Sweetheart you even said you'd rather be dead
Than from me to be far away
But now it's coming home to you and i know that you'll be blue
Cause you knew you were only teasing me
[ steel ]
Each mistake dear that you've made leaves a debt that must be paid
That can't be done with just an iou
You must pay with your heart pay in full and not in part
You can't know happiness until you do
Sweetheart you even said you'd rather be dead...
