When I took a little loving from you,
Oh I never thought about the hurting inside,
But I took a little more than I should,
Oh why? Can't explain that I ever would
Let you slip through my fingers,
Let you escape like yesterday.
I would appreciate you knowing,
I thought your love had come to stay.
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
But I took a little more of your each day
When I didn't see that I was breaking you apart
With angry words of love I didn't mean.
Oh why? Can't believe that I ever would
Talk myself out of tomorrow,
Talked like a fool to yesterday
And, as the evening loses colour,
Your love began to fade away.
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn.
Talking out of turn.
If I upset you,
I didn't mean to hurt you,
I didn't mean to make you cry.
I don't need an alibi
To start me talking out of turn
When I took a little loving from you.
Oh I can't believe that I ever would
Let you slip through my fingers,
Let you escape like yesterday.
I would appreciate you knowing,
I thought your love had come to stay
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
