Did I Say That? Songtext
von Meat Loaf

So this is what it feels like
To be the one left behind
To give it all you got, then find
You′ve already changed your mind

And this is what it sounds like
Cryin' on the bed that we both made
Waiting for a sign that you just can′t give me
Any kind of sign

And I don't want to be here wide awake
Clingin' to a love that can′t be saved
And hangin′ off the edge of every word
That you say

And so I asked myself, "Do I love you so much
That I'm willing to let you go?"
And at the tip of my tongue, the answer was yes
But at the bottom of my heart I′m wondering


Did I say that? Oh, no, no
Did I say that? Oh
Sometimes you know I overreact
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back

And you know I'd drag myself through fire at your side
And you know the gates of Heaven are surely open wide
And I need some sympathy here
And I need someone to call my own
I′m standing in the light of my mistakes
And begging you, "Come home"

And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're choking on your pride

So I asked myself, "Do I love you so much
That I′m willing to let you go?"
And at the tip of my tongue, the answer was yes
But at the back of my mind I'm wondering

Did I say that? Oh, no, no
Did I say that? Oh
Sometimes you know I overreact
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back
But I said that

And I wish that I could take it all back


And I need some sympathy here
And I want a love to call my own
I want to take you in the back seat now
And slowly drive you home

And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're
Choking on your pride

And I don′t want to be this wide awake
Fighting for a love that I can′t save
And hanging off the edge of every word you say
Knowing that it might make me cry
And I don't want to be this complicating
You can drag it out, but I′ll be waiting
I stumbled on "I love you" tonight
But it sounded like goodbye

Did I say that?
Did I say that? Oh
Did I tell you that I loved you, 'cause it
Would have been a matter of fact

Did I say that? (This time I′m not letting go)
Did I say that? Oh (this time I'll have and I′ll hold)
Did I tell you that I loved you, 'cause it
Would have been a matter of fact, oh

Did I say that? Mm (this time I'm walking through fire)
Did I say that? Mm (this time I′ll feed your desire)
Did I say that? Oh (this time I′ll stand by your side)
Did I say that? Oh (this time I will be your pride)
Did I say that? (this time I'm not letting go)
Did I say that? (this time I′ll have and I'll hold)
Did I say that? (this time I′m walking through fire)
Did I say that?
And I wish that I could take it all back

So this is what it feels like
To be the one left behind
To give it all you got, then find
That you've already changed your mind
