I Really Didn't Mean It Lyrics

Luther Vandross I Really Didn't Mean It

I told my girl bye-bye
But I really didn't mean it
Said, “I met somebody new so fine”
But I really didn't mean it

Out of my head to say the things I said
I didn't mean a word
Think jealousy just took a hold on me
I hope she'll ignore the things she heard

(No doubt about it)
My heart is in her hands
(With every moment)
I'm waiting for a second chance
(Maybe an angel)
Will come and help her see
I can't face the world if she don't love me

I told my girl bye-bye
But I really didn't mean it
Said, “I met somebody new so fine”
But I really didn't mean it

When I walked away I cried
'Cause I really didn't mean it
So she took me back 'cause she knew I
That I really didn't mean it

Dear one from me, take my apology
I need you back
I promise, I know to never let you go
Is there a chance to see you baby

(They talk about all)
The love that we still share
(Full of emotion)
I barely miss your happiness
(Your kiss in the morning)
The way it used to be
I know it's true but I don't believe

I told my girl bye-bye
But I really didn't mean it
Said, “I met somebody new so fine”
But I really didn't mean it

When I walked away I cried
'Cause I really didn't mean it
So she took me back 'cause she knew I
That I really didn't mean it

(I want you back)
It can't be any other way
(I want you back)
And I've waited for the day
(I want you back)
I'm gonna be a little smarter
(I want you back)
I've got to try a little harder

She's good, she's fine and always on my mind
I know our love will stand the test of time
She's my girl and my best friend
But I really didn't mean it

Her love is love so fine and so for real
I want the world to know the way I feel
She's my girl and my best friend
But I really didn't mean it, yeah ooh

I told my girl bye-bye
But I really didn't mean it
Said, “I met somebody new so fine”
But I really didn't mean it

When I walked away I cried
'Cause I really didn't mean it, mean it
So she took me back 'cause she knew I
That I really didn't mean it

Yeah
(Bye-bye)
Ooh, yeah yeah, bye
(So fine)
Yeah yeah
(I cry)
I really didn't mean it, mean it, mean it, mean it
('Cause she knew I)
