Nobody
No Fun At All Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't believe what I said 'cause I know
That we will last for a long, long time
You heard what I said and maybe now
It's time to slow things down

So please, don't believe what I'm saying
Try to forgive me, I know I have my faults
But nobody is perfect, I've done my somersaults
And it hurts so much to see you cry
Hurts so much just to be alone

Can't believe what I did and I know
This time I must have gone too far
You saw what I did and surely
You will try to kill me now

So please, don't believe what I'm saying
Try to forgive me, I know I have my faults
But nobody is perfect, I've done my somersaults
And it hurts so much to see you cry
Hurts so much just to be alone

I never really could explain
You must have thought I was insane
I never really could explain
All that you gave me was in vain

Try to forgive me, I know I have my faults
But nobody is perfect, I've done my somersaults




And it hurts so much to see you cry
Hurts so much just to be alone
