Lyrics for Nine Times Blue

There's a certain something in the way You looked at me and said you'd stay That let me know that I was out of line But I didn't know what else to do And like a fool, I tested you By demanding things of you, which weren't mine And now I feel like such a fool For making you crawl back to me But you did it with such love That you're standing far above Me and all I did to you I'm sorry now, what can I do? I know that never in the world Could I have found me such a girl Who's there to pick me up before I fall And if in the end, we should go Both our separate ways I know the lesson I've learned here is worth it all 'Cause now I feel like such a fool For making you crawl back to me But you did it with such love That you're standing far above Me and all I did to you I'm sorry now, what can I do? I know that never in the world Could I have found me such a girl Who's there to pick me up before I fall And if in the end, we should go Both our separate ways I know the lesson I've learned here is worth it all
