Bad decisions, my adventures Some have faded, some I choose to keep The past is crowded with quite a lot I'm not too proud of But I could never feel ashamed That someone helped me through the changes I've been tempted, I've been cradled (cradled) When I've needed someone I've been careless when I'm able (able) This won't be my first confession In my conscience, in my confusion I'm much better drifting off to sleep No more hurting, but what's the pleasure not worth doing I'm paid up on this bill of goods I've talked to you more than I should have I've been tempted, I've been cradled (cradled) When I've needed someone (someone, someone) I've been careless when I'm able (able) This won't be my first confession My confession's just the truth You see, I can't afford to lose you now, no no I've got so many things I'd like to say But I'm lost, and I'm so afraid, babe I've been tempted, I've been cradled When I've needed someone, someone I've been careless when I'm able (able) (This won't) This won't be my first confession I've been tempted, I've been cradled (cradled) When I've needed someone (someone, someone) I've been careless when I'm able (able) (This won't) This won't be my first confession
