Slip of the Tongue Commodores

I'm feeling sorry for myself today
She threw me down off the wall around the fire
I knew exactly what I meant to say
She walked away and calling me a liar
Giving you the passion, burning like a flame
I don't know what maybe which was someone else's name

Slip of the tongue, from the like of me
I really didn't mean what I say
'Cause it's slip of the tongue, I don't understand
Something they will lose my head
It was the slip of the tongue
Don't she realize anyone could make a mistake?
But she don't even know (slip of the tongue)
She says she doesn't care (slip of the tongue)
She thinks I'm runnin' 'round but I swear
It was the slip of the tongue

No way you treat me what is said and done
Careless words took away the building
I got the girl to believe it's true
It's gonna take worth a shout of a miracle
(Gonna take a miracle, a miracle)
Crazy situation, I got to find a way
I got the girl, but don't you believe what I say?
