LYRICS

Let you take me out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I wasn't trying to lead you on
Now you bring me home
And tell me goodnight's not enough for you
I'm sorry baby
I didn't mean to turn you on

You read me wrong
I wasn't trying to lead you on
Not like you think
I didn't mean to turn you on

You read (read) me wrong (me wrong)
I wasn't trying to lead you on
I want a friend
I didn't mean to turn you on
Ooh I didn't mean to turn you on

I know you expected a one night stand
When I refused I knew you wouldn't understand
I told you twice
I was only trying to be nice
Only trying to be nice
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on

You read me wrong
I wasn't trying to lead you on
Not like you think
I didn't mean to turn you on

You read (read) me wrong
I wasn't trying to lead you on (lead you on)
I want a friend (a friend)
I didn't mean to turn you on (on)
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on

Turn you on

Why should I feel guilty 'cause I won't give
Guilty 'cause I won't give in
I didn't mean to turn you on
Did did did baby

I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
ah ah ah
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
No I didn't baby
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
