Debbie Gibson When I Say No
Performed by: Debbie Gibson Written by: Deborah Gibson Maybe I thought I wanted to be here Maybe I thought I wanted your lovin' tonight The music too slow, the lights too low But something just wasn't right I started to fear your glowing eyes, your tender touch Your words they were too much for me But when I tried to push you away You said you didn't think I'd want it that way CHORUS: When I say no, that's what I mean Not maybe so or what's in between If I said yes, that's what it would be Is that what you heard? No! So step away from me True there are some girls who know what they're doing People think they get what they deserve But look who's calling the kettle black baby you've got some nerve I do not know why the reasons lie so unclear But boy you've got to understand If any girl rejects you Don't you doubt it's part of the plan CHORUS Ego trips won't save you when your woman is deceived Act upon what matters baby, not how you're perceived She will love you more and maybe the rest will follow But not if you push it baby!
