I Misunderstood

She said, "Darling, I'm in love with your mind

The way you care for me, it's so kind

Love to see you again, I wish I had more time"

She was laughing as she brushed my cheek

"Why don't you call me, angel, maybe next week?

Promise now, cross your heart and hope to die"

But I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying goodbye

But I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying goodbye

Things I try to put shine in her eyes

Wire wheels and shimmering things

Wild nights when the whole world seemed to fly

She said, "The thing that's so unique

When we're together we don't have to speak

We'll always be such good friends, you and I"

Oh, but I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

But I misunderstood

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying goodbye

But I misunderstood (Misunderstood)

But I misunderstood (Misunderstood)

But I misunderstood

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying good—

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying good—

I thought she was saying good luck

She was saying goodbye

Oh, she was saying goodbye

Oh, she was saying goodbye

Oh, she was saying, saying, saying

Oh, she was saying goodbye

Oh, saying goodbye

She was saying goodbye

Oh, saying goodbye

Mmm hmm

Mmm hmm
