If you hurt me, you won't be the first or the last In a lifetime of many mistakes. But I won't spend tomorrow regretting the past For the chances that I didn't take. 'Cause I'll never know 'til it's over If I'm right or I'm wrong loving you, But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done Than for something that I didn't do. When you touch me it's easy to make me believe Tomorrow won't take you away But I'd gamble whatever tomorrow might bring For the love that I'm living today. 'Cause I'll never know 'til it's over If I'm right or I'm wrong loving you, But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done Than for something that I didn't do. I know someday that I may wake up all alone When the love I believed in has died But at least I won't wonder what I might have won >From the lifetime that I watched going by 'Cause I'll never know 'til it's over If I'm right or I'm wrong loving you, But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done Than for something that I didn't do.

Well I travel the higway I make many scenes. Being lost in darkness, I've been out on the streets. I feel so unhappy, sometimes I wanted to die, Lord But if I have your sweet sweet love, I know I get right. This old world is turning, like wheels on a train, I hold on to each moment, that it won't come again. (let me tell you) I'm not educated, but there's one thing I know, That I'd rather be blind, than to see you go. (all right now) I feel that for strong woman, who knows how to be week, And it makes me feel so good, every time she speaks. Oh the revelation, the revelation in her smile, It feels so much like in heaven, when I ...? So don't leave me darling, no, whatever you do, When I'm standing beside you, I know we'll get trough And there is only one thing, babe, that I want you to know, That I'd rather be blind, than to see you go. SOLO So don't leave me babe, ah, whatever you do, When you're standing beside me, I know we'll get trough And there is only one thing, babe, that I want you to know, That I'd rather be blind, than to see you go. (let me tell you now) I'd rather be blind, than to see you go. (let me tell you again) I'd rather be blind, than to see you go

So your best friend screwed you over Acted nice when she not nice Well, I have some advice 'Cause it's happened to me twice Here's my secret strategy It always works because The world doesn't end It just feels like it does So raise your right finger And solemnly swear Whatever they say about me I don't care I won't twist in knots to join your game I will say, "You make me mad" And if you treat me bad I'll say, "You're bad" And if I eat alone from this moment on That's just what I'll do 'Cause I'd rather be me, I'd rather be me I'd rather be me than be with you We're supposed to all be ladies And be nurturing and care Is that really fair? Boys get to fight, we have to share Here's the way that that turns out We always understand How to slap someone down With our underhand So here's my right finger To how girls should behave 'Cause sometimes what's meant to break you Makes you brave So I will not act all innocent I won't fake apologise Let's just fight and then make up Not tell these lies Let's call our damage even Clean the slate 'til it's like new It's a new life for me Where I'd rather be me I'd rather be me Than be with you I'll say, "No" (no) I'll say, "Knock it off with your notes and your rules and your games" And those sycophants who follow you I'll remember all their names And when they drag you down Like they inevitably do I will not laugh along with them and Approve their palace coup, 'cause that's not me (Janis, Janis, Janis, Janis) I don't need their good opinions I have plenty of opinions Everybody has opinions but it doesn't make them true What's true is being me And I'd rather be me I'd rather be me than be with you So raise them high 'cause playing nice and shy is insulting my IQ (Yeah, yeah, yeah) I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me) I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me) I'd rather be me than be with you (I'd rather be me) I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me) I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me) I'd rather be me than be with you
