MEANT IT FOR A MINUTE

(Carlene Carter - James Eller)

Don't believe a word

You don't believe it

I know what you've heard

I could take it or leave it

I meant it for a minute

Not a second too late

Meant it for a minute

Too weak to wait

You took it like a ticket

You were never meant to take

You know I meant it for a minute

Meant it for a minute

You never took a hint

I never lost a wink of sleep

Don't think I blink the tears back

Everytime you walk away

You can snap your fingers 123

But you can never count on girls like me

Hearts like yours are craxk and break

And it's tickin' like a ticket tape

You know I meant it meant it for a minute

Meant it mean it for a minute

You took it right and left

From time to time I lose myself

Can't help I fell

I've left my marbles

On the shelf to roll away

You can count your blessings anyway you please

Standin' on your feet or on your knees

I'm no sweet meant to be

I only meant it for a minute

You know I meant it meant it for a minute

Meant it meant it for a minute
