Tip Of My Tongue - Paul Carrack

It felt so good when she told me

I need somebody just to hold me, tonight

Now what could I say

I closed the door now behind me

She dimmed the light

That’s when I should have mentioned

It just ain’t right

Every thought was in my head

But the words remained unsaid

It was on the it of my tongue

I tried to raise my resistance

I couldn’t fight her insistence

Two rights still make it wrong

I guess that she found my weakness

I just wasn’t strong

I shouldn’t' ever have been there

I should have been long gone

Well my mind was in one place

It was written on my face

It was on the tip of my tongue

Every thought was in my head

But the words remained unsaid

It was on the it of my tongue

I guess I should have known better

I should have told here when I met her

Two rights still make a wrong

It’s easy to point the finger

But I’m not ashamed

It’s just the laws of convention

Says I’m to blame

Every thought was in my head

But the words remained unsaid

It was on the it of my tongue
