Here's my story behind this song and its lyrics:
I came across this song by total chance (via a remix made in 2013) and I was completely hooked. I hadn't heard of the singer Andrea Martin before, so obviously this song was unfamiliar too. But something about it drew me in and this is all I listened to for the past couple of days. I wanted to know the lyrics and googled it... and I couldn't find anything.
There are lyric pages under this song title but it's completely wrong, probably a different song or something.
This was a rare occasion in which Google failed me, and I was completely baffled. I'm guessing this song wasn't very well known if the lyrics were this hard to find, but still. Anyway, so for the handful of people in search of the lyrics like me, I've tried transcribing the song myself. Some parts weren't very clear so I just wrote what seemed reasonable, but they can totally be wrong. If anyone could provide the offiical lyrics that would be fantastic, but I'm not betting on it. :( Here goes:
No special reason why we can't get along
You say you love me but still I'm hungry
You say you're better
though in thought it isn't getting me anywhere
There's a million sad songs that I can join in
But I never thought that I had it coming
It's the breaking of my heart
that's just telling me to go
If being faithful is wrong for one day
then I think I better go
No happy ending
If I said that you were wrong I'd be pretending
You say to leave her
but in my heart I know I'm giving you the reason
There's a million sad songs that I can join in
But I realize that I have had it coming
It's the breaking of my heart
that's just telling me to go
If being faithful is wrong for one day
then I won't stand in your way
x2
It's like harmony has got the hold of me
I need memories of being cold to me
Give me a reason why you are leaving
What's to believe in why you're cheating
They say it's the breaking of my heart
that's got me going crazy
It's the breaking of my heart
that's just telling me to go
If being faithful is wrong for one day
then I think I better go
Hopefully I got most of it right. And now this has sent me on a spree of listening to old-school R&B. :D
Thank you for trying. I've loved this song since I was very young, but of course never knew who it was by or even the title. So it has always been stuck in the back of my mind and on random occasions I find myself singing or humming to it and have tried to type into Google the few words I remember, but always came up with nothing. Was so fortunate to come across it being played by someone I follow on snapchat a day ago, but she's not my friend so there was no way to contact and ask her. So I recored her 2 stories and as a last ditch effort sent it to a friend of mine who loves golden oldies! I figured if he didn't know it, then I'm doomed. He went to follow the girl to listen to the song and said he knows it and would get back to me with the artists name. When he did, I quickly went onto youtube to listen to it and I just cried. :) I too am sad there are no lyrics of it anywhere, but at least it isn't a complicated song to understand.
ReplyDeleteThe things we do to find out song titles, right? XD I'm so happy you finally found it, and yeah it's a shame that this wasn't such a big hit to have its own official lyric page somewhere.
Deletelove this song it makes me think of my Wife and how i have broked her heart over and over , and i just regret all my duings
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this.. I fell in love with this song back in high school, when I was introduced to her by friends. I never thought though that it would have so much meaning into my life like it does now... Except he didn't cheat, he's just emotionally unavailable 💔
ReplyDeleteThanks for this... haven't heard this song in eons,then boom there it is with lyrics too!!! The beat kinder reminds me of CeCe Winan's On That Day.
ReplyDeleteI just listened to On That Day for the first time and you're right! Thanks for recommending. :)
DeleteThank you, all over the internet the lyrics are wrong..
ReplyDeleteYay Finally 💙
