Story behind the song
Forgive me.
Lyrics
Didn't Mean . . . . . 2008 Wild Bill Austin V1 Didn't mean to be so distant, Didn't mean to be so cruel, Didn't mean to be mistreated Long before I started school. I meant to be respected, Meant to crawl out of this hole, Instead of being twice suspected Of having lost control. Lift I am what I am. I do the best I can. Need to make it up to you. So I have a plan: Cho I'll sing my way into your hearts, Play every night, every day, Rock you 'til the smiling starts, Send all my love your way. If you could forgive me For all I did not do, My past would not outlive me. I'd sing my song to you. (Transition in dominant (V)) V2 Didn't mean to hide in darkness, Didn't mean to turn away. I was down, confused, and broken. Didn't hear the words I'd say. I meant to be more careful, Never hurting anyone. The things I said were awful. Can I make them come undone? (Lift + Chorus + Transition) Bridge I want to play that I'm sorry, not speak some worn out phrase, Or tell the same, sad story, in a half a million ways. (Break) V3 Didn't mean to wait forever To correct these things I've done, Didn't think that I was clever, Was miles away from everyone. I mean to pay my penance, Like to come into the fold, Want to learn to learn to love, Not stay out here in the cold. (Lift + Chorus) Tuesday July 29, 2008
