On/Off Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I couldn't believe what I was seeing
Faces all screwed up like what I'd done
I didn't mean to hurt you so much
I knew it would hurt you but not like this
We all make a mess from time to time dear
But it'll take me a lifetime to get this cleared
Somebody muttered something under their breath
But I let on like I was a little deaf

[Chorus]
Nobody's perfect that's what I say
No one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry

[Verse 2]
Running away seemed like the easy
Thing to do because I wanted time
To put a smile back on my dour face
For once nothing's missing and I feel fine
I was afraid to tell you some things
But some things all find a way to get told
Hearing it from the lips of somebody else
Must have knocked the wind out of your sweet face

[Chorus]
Nobody's perfect that's what I say
No one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry
Nobody's perfect that's what I say
No one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
