Lyrics
- What made me do it? what drove me to it?
How did I get in your arms?
Before I knew it, I grew accustomed to it
How could I resist your charms?
Chorus
I didn’t wanna love you
No, I didn’t wanna love you
But when you looked into my eyes
What could I do?
I didn’t wanna kiss you
No, I didn’t wanna kiss you
But when you sighed those little sighs
What could I do?
Can’t you see you drove me crazy?
I never really meant to fall
Suddenly, the world went hazy
I’m only human after all
I didn’t wanna love you
No, I didn’t wanna love you
But when you looked into my eyes
What could I do?
- I didn’t mean to but something seemed to
Just keep alluring me on
I didn’t care to, whatever made me dare to
Hang around ’till I was gone?
