When I said what I said about not giving a damn That you'd be happier without me as your man When I said that I didn't think you needed me anymore And I turned and walked right on out your door I wish I knew were my head was at And I wish I knew just what I meant by that When I said I couldn't stand another night When I said to you honey that this thing didn't feel right When I said that we might just be happier on our own When I said that we both needed some time alone I really think I must've been full of crap Because I wish I knew what I meant by that When I said that you weren't the one for me That I couldn't be tied down I had to set myself free When I said I didn't think that this thing would work That you deserved better than this old jerk I wish I knew where my head was at I wish I knew what I meant by that When I said that I didn't think we should give it one more try When I said that if I thought it could work that'd be a lie When I said that this thing just couldn't work out fine You know I must've been clear going out of my mind I know for sure that I was full of crap Because I really wish I knew what I meant by that
