Basia My Cruel Ways Lyrics

Songwriters: Daniel Phillip White;Basia Trzetrzelewska

I closed my eyes
A blind and cold hearted fool
Last night I lost my mind
And came so close to losin' you
So close to losin' you
Misread your smile
(Misread your smile)
Misunderstood your tears
Ignored the pleading voice
And every sigh
(Every sigh)
Even your words of love I would not listen
It's a lesson I'll never forget
No communication gave rise to fear
Tell me, who's to blame?
What I really meant to tell you
I panicked

'Cause I would die if something happened to you
(If something happened to you)
I'd die if something would

But I'm so spoilt by your patience and devotion
That only now I recognize some of my cruel ways
Some of my cruel ways
Maybe it's good
(Maybe it's good)
Maybe it was meant to be
There was no other way you could get through
(You could get through)
And now it's my turn to get through to you, baby
It's a lesson I'll never forget
And no communication gave rise to fear
(Ooh, ooh)
Tell me, who's to blame?
(Hey)
What I really meant to tell you I need you
I need you

And I would die if something happened to you
(If something happened to you)
I'd die if something would

Would I try to tell you?
(I love you)

And I would die if something happened to you
(If something happened to you)
I'd die if something would
Ohh ohh ohh ohh

Even then your words of love I wouldn't listen
It's a lesson
(Ohh lesson)
I'll never forget
(Forget)
No communication gave rise to fear
Tell me, who's to blame?

What I try to tell you, baby?
What I meant to tell you, darlin'?
Wouldn't live without you, honey
Couldn't live without you
(I wouldn't live without you)
If only you are with me, baby
(No)
If only you are with me, darlin'
'Cause I've been waiting for you, honey
(Ohh, I've been waitin')
I've been waiting for you
What I try to tell you?
I'd die if something would
But I close my eyes
A blind and cold hearted fool
Last night I lost my mind
And came so close to losin' you
So close to losin' you

Mmm, haa aaa, so close to losin' you
