MELANIE C LYRICS - Beautiful Intentions

"Beautiful Intentions"



I couldn't help but open my big mouth

As I stumbled into you the words fell out

Well you asked me the question and I just couldn't lie

But why did you bother when you knew what you'd find

No no no

I didn't mean to leave you standing in the dark



So blind that I can't decide if you knew that I harboured

Beautiful intentions for you

So cruel that I never knew truly

If you harboured beautiful intentions for me



When they give you your identity

Tell me will you recognise yourself?

You're so influenced by the things that you hear

Down with the smoke screen to make everything clear

Oh oh oh

You gotta learn to live and take it in your stride



So blind that I can't decide if you knew that I harboured

Beautiful intentions for you

So cruel that I never knew truly

If you harboured beautiful intentions for me

So blind

So blind

So blind

So blind



Jaded with exhausting pressure

Will I feel like this forever?

Faded inconsistent pleasure

Wear me down wear me out

Jaded with exhausting pressure

Will I feel like this forever?

Faded inconsistent pleasure

Wear me down wear me out



So blind that I can't decide if you knew that I harboured

Beautiful intentions for you

So cruel that I never knew truly

If you harboured beautiful intentions for me



I wanna know did I disappoint you?

It still hurts to mention the words that were spoken now

I wanna know, are you contemplating?

The beautifully intended yet tainted impression of me



So blind that I can't decide if you knew I had

Beautiful intentions for you

And so cruel that I never knew

If you had beautiful intentions for me
