Every Time You Told Me ​The Beat (Ft. Dave Wakeling)

When we met you were shining
Like a diamond in a mine
So I can't quite remember
When the passions turned to crime

Either you do, or either you don't
Either way out, somebody gets hurt
No good pushing, you know the reason why

Every time you told me, I wanted to believe it
Every time you told me, I knew I was wrong
Every time you told me, I wanted to believe it
Every timе you told me, I knew I was wrong

Every timе I wanted someone just to be there
Someone to hold onto, you were gone
Every time you told me, I wanted to believe it
Every time you told me, I knew I was wrong

Boys on the corner in their soulful five and dime
Getting ready to party like it's 1969
Damned if you do and damned if you don't
Either way out, somebody gets burned
No good pushing, you know the reason why

Every time you told me, I wanted to believe it
Every time you told me, I knew I was wrong
Every time you told me, I wanted to believe it
Every time you told me, I knew I was wrong
