Crowded House — Mean To Me lyrics

Lyrics

She came all the way from america
Had a blind date with destiny
And the sound of te awamutu
Had a truly sacred ring
Now her parents are divorced
And her friendЂ™s committing suicide
I could not escape
A plea from the heart
You know what it means to me She said donЂ™t walk away
IЂ™m down on my knees
So please donЂ™t be mean to me So I talked to you for an hour
In the bar of a small town hotel
You asked me what I was thinking
I was thinking of a padded cell
With a black and white t.v.
To stop us from getting lonely
I could not escape
A plea from the heart
You know what it means to me She said donЂ™t walk away
IЂ™m down on my knees
So please donЂ™t be mean to me No, I could not escape
A plea from the heart
Mysterious sympathy
I couldnЂ™t wait for a chance
To walk out the door
You know what it means to me
I saw you lying in the arms of a poet
I heard him tell you t… tantalising lies
Well whadЂ™dЂ™ya know, whadЂ™dЂ™ya know
I could not escape
YouЂ™re down on the floor
You know what it means to me
I couldnЂ™t wait for a chance
To walk out the door
Mean…
You know what it means
In the arms of a poet
You know what it means
