What did you mean
When you said that to me
What did you mean
Could you enlighten me
I've heard that tone of voice before
And I'm already halfway out the door
I don't guess there would be anything more
I'll just pick my jaw right off the floor

What did you mean
When you said that to me
I couldn't believe it
Care to explain that to me
I'm just not sure if I heard you right
This will keep me up most of the night
I hope that's not what you think of me
I'm not thinking too clearly

Not thinking too clearly
Were you thinking at all
Not that guilty really
That I can recall

Why don't you just come right out with it
The pieces you're giving me don't fit
I don't want to get your meaning wrong
Is this how you've been feeling all along

What did you mean, what did you mean
When you said that to me
Misunderstand you, I don't want to
Misunderstand you, I don't want to
Misunderstand you
