All of us have our own kind of style

it's what makes this planet spin

all of us have our own kind of style

and how we play this game

but you know

I never meant to put you down

or to wear your senses thin

and it wasn't my intention

to make you think you had to win

you had to win

 

I don't think love's gonna come easy to you

behind your fortress walls

'cause the humor that you keep from view

is no way to live at all

 

So live and let live

that's what they all say

and it's all take and give anyway

but I wonder still

would it have been the same

if this whole damned thing were turned the other way

the other way around

 

No

I don't think love's gonna come easy to you

behind your fortress walls

and I could be wrong about how I see you

but I know

it's nowhere being cold and small

can you hear me calling

calling you

  

 

It Wasn't My Intention

 

It wasn't my intention

to rile you up like that

it wasn't my intention

to put you on the spot

but you know

there's a lot of things that we don't mean

when we're feeling good with friends

and it wasn't my intention

to let our friendship end
