Lyrics

I didn't mean to hurt you so bad
You shouldn't take it so personal
I didn't mean to make you so sad
You just happened to be there, that's all
When I saw you say goodbye to your friend and smile
I thought that it was well understood
You'd be comin' back in a little while
I didn't know you were sayin' goodbye for good
Sooner or later, one of us must know
You're just doing what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
I really did try to get close to you
I didn't know what you could show me
Your scarf had kept your mouth well-hid
I didn't know how you could know me
But you said you knew me, and I believed you did
When you whispered in my ear
And asked me if I was leavin' with you or her
I didn't realize just what I did hear
I didn't realize how young you were
Sooner or later, one of us must know
You're just doing what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
I really did try to get close to you
I couldn't see when it started snowin'
Your voice was all that I heard
I didn't know where we were goin'
But you said you knew and I took your word
When you told me later, as I apologized
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
And I told you, as you clawed out my eyes
I never meant to do you any harm
Sooner or later, one of us must know
You're just doing what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
I really did try to get close to you
