Heather Headley - I Didn't Mean To Lyrics
It's bordering on insanity
So blurred
So unclear
Then suddenly eyes focus and realize that
This man should not be here
But after it's over you wish you could disown it
And as you get up to tell this stranger to leave
The love of your life walks in and sees . . . everything
[Chorus:]
And of all the things that you could have said
What was in your head?
I didn't mean to
All the thoughts running through your mind
All that you could find
And the pain of losing everything comes over you
I didn't mean to
All you can say is that 'you didn't mean to'
I didn't mean to
And it's reality now
Pictures of him and your baby
Smashed in broken glass all on the floor
With his suitcase in one hand, your little girl's hand in the other
You hear him say "Mommy don't love us no more"
And it cuts like a knife but you can't blame him either
You're a mother, you're a wife, but you're also a cheater
Ooh girl, one silly moment of lust
Just cost you everything that you've ever loved
[Chorus:]
And of all the things that you could have said
What was in your head?
I didn't mean to
All the thoughts running through your mind
All that you could find
I didn't mean to
And the pain of losing everything comes over you
I didn't mean to
All you can say is that 'you didn't mean to'
I didn't mean to
[Bridge:]
Oh, the clouds are rolling in
As you prepare to face this punishment and suffer the consequence
Such a price to pay
Was it really worth it?
And you fight back tears
As you watch him take the only thing you ever truly loved away
The tears in her eyes as she waves goodbye
Slowly kills you inside
[Chorus:]
And of all the things that you could have said
What was in your head?
I didn't mean to
All the thoughts running through your mind
All that you could find
I didn't mean to
And the pain of losing everything comes over you
I didn't mean to
All you can say is that 'you didn't mean to'
I didn't mean to

Love this song
Love this song
this song still triggers me. My ex played this song the night she confessed... the memories... smh
Love this song
Drop dead gorgeous w/ such a soulful voice, incredible combination
Powerful words or did she really mean 2
Such a haunting melody.
ONE OF THE BEST VOICES OF ALL TIME EVER!!
I didn't mean to leave like that... ❤ always
Such a lovely lady ♡ GOD BLESS US ALL!
Touch home
This has to be the best song expressing a woman's point of view after being caught cheating! I love this song and Heather sang the mess outta this one. Cheating is never good and this song shows what you risk losing when you're that selfish to hurt the one you love. Love this CD.
but who cheated? her or someone else?
She's the cheater in the song.
I didn't mean2 lol
Bought this cd long time ago. My favorite artist . Underated... yes. Awesome voice making good music
Alternate.ego my favorite song on the album. It’s so raw and beautiful
Yes,th lyrics used for this situation are amazing:"Ohhh,the clouds are rolling in,as you prepare to face this punishment;and suffer the consequence;what a price to PAY;was it really WORTH it?!?" "As you watch him take the ONLY thing you ever truly loved away...With tears in her eyes as she waves goodbye,SLOWLY kills you inside!!"
Paul Donovan, never that about way. Good analogy.
Yes indeed,because I've been involvedin situations like this plenty of times,and I got a worse"excuse"then the one here,like:"He ONLY put"it"halfway in,and THAT was it!!" The GREAT line here is:"Mommy don't love us NO more!!
I think it is because she don't go half naked, and us sex appeal to sell herself!
THATS WHATS UP! PEACE & FOREVER LOVE ♡
Yeah, like Adele doing her half naked videos... oh wait.
I was 13 when I bought this cd. This was my song, but her whole cd was amazing. So sad....
WHAT'S sad, THE SONG?
You didn't have to skip one song whole album was good
She is so under-rated. Why isn't she all over the air waves? That voice is spectacular, and Heather is a beautiful woman. You go, Girl!!!
Harper-Greer Mangini probably won't sell her soul for it
She is so under rated! She is the best to me!
those lips:)
Omg love this song
I didn't mean to... Can you forgive me. I'm so sorry
Is that Mark Ronson saying "didn't mean to"? Or someone he worked with.
All You Can Say Is Tht You Didnt Mean To.
I Love It.
one of her best songs. yes under rated.
Old song but a woman finally admits to cheating.
TRUE INDEED @SEXYBABES9999
I need her to come back like yesterday lol
What happen to r & b??? you don't ever hear songs like this on the radio or see it on t.v. anymore....And i'm talking about the SOUL singers the Voices that give you goosebumps when they sing...not this bubblegum pop music techno gothic shit. Miss the real soul singers wish they would come back....
@MrPrincefan7 She became a gospel singer
Oh, THANK GOD! I kept asking where is she, and NOBODY KNEW! THATS WONDERFUL! GOD BLESS US ALL IN JESUS CHRIST NAME AMEN♡
Deli s I thought that's what happened
this picture was my desktop background image for like an year
I hate that she's so underrated..this is real talent unlike some of these artist today. Btw, I love this song...I loved the whole cd!
this song caught my attention off the rip and it really touched me personally...its more then a song its a real life story...i can dig it heather....
