My Way

(Perkin)

Why did you decide that you wanted to be with me?
Was it just opportunity?
Time was on our side but you thought once the time had changed
All my dreams could be rearranged

And you were the one who kept this going on
When I tried to leave it was you who clung to me
Yes you were the one who had me all along
Cos you made my plans and I gave in to your demands

Please don’t tell me what I want
I don’t buy the things you say
When you sell your lies as compromise
And tell me I’ve got my way
That is no way for a man
To convince me I should stay
And you’re naïve, dumb or ignorant
If you think this is my way

You have been quite true not a promise ever occurred
So you’ve delivered every word
Now you have to vow after years of appeasing me
Make it up by releasing me

And you were the one who knew all this was wrong
Left me on your shelf ‘cause you want me for yourself
Yes you were the one who broke someone so strong
But I guarantee that you’d best listen to me

Please don’t tell me what I want
I don’t buy the things you say
When you sell your lies as compromise
And tell me I’ve got my way
That is no way for a man
To convince me I should stay
And you’re naïve, dumb or ignorant
If you think this is my way

Maybe I’m some little girl who you’ve been taking pity on
You’ve spent too much time on me so I’m out your life
I’m going, I’m going, I’m gone

Please, please, please don’t tell me what I want
I don’t buy the things you say
When you sell your lies as compromise
And tell me I’ve got my way
That is no way for a man
To convince me I should stay
And you’re naïve, dumb or ignorant
If you think this is my way

Yes you’re naïve, dumb or ignorant
Cos you think this is my way
