Patti Labelle - I Don't Do Duets (Duets With Gladys Knight) текст песни

I did it again

I always make the same mistake

When it comes to men,

I fall for the guys with the bedroom eyes

It starts out great,

But before too long

Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Wrong



He says, "I love you baby,

You're the best I ever knew

But I'm not ready for anyone like you

This is as far as it goes,

And as close as it gets."

He says, "You sing so pretty,

But I don't do duets!"



He walked in the room

And all he had to do was smile

Waitin' in his arms

A fool would have known was a danger zone

His talk was sweet

But let there be no doubt,

That while I was movin' in, he was movin' out



He said, "I love you baby,

You're the best I ever knew

But I'm not ready for anyone like you

This is as far as it goes,

And as close as it gets."

He said, "You sing so pretty,

But I don't do duets!"




(I) wish that I could lose my mind

For the faithful, ready, steady kind

He's out there singin' on his own

And like me, he's tired of doin it alone



I did it again,

I always make the same mistake

When it comes to men

I fall for the guys with the bedroom eyes

It starts out great,

But before too long,

Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Wrong

I'll make him happy

Oh, how I'll love him

I'll keep him warm



The rest of his nights

Clinging together

Singing together

We'll forget al those lonely

Solo flights



Enough of: "I love you baby,

You're the best I ever knew

No more: "I'm not ready for anyone like you."

Not gonna fall for those lines,

The lies and regrets

Not gonna sing so pretty

If he Don't do Duets!
