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 And 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? 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 You would run around and lead me on forever Oh, while I wait at home still thinking we're together I wanted our love to last forever, ooh Oh, yeah 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 (No, no) 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 Baby, don't you break my heart slow
