BUT YOU DIDN'T

Remember the time you let me drive your car
and I dented the fender?
I thought you’d kill me
BUT YOU DIDN’T.

And remember the time I met your new girlfriend,
you know, the one you were crazy about,
and she became my new girlfriend?
I thought you’d floor me
BUT YOU DIDN’T.

What about the time I forgot to tell you
the party was black tie, and you wore jeans?
I thought you’d never speak to me again
BUT YOU DID.

Do you remember the time I wanted to go to
the concert, but you said it would be boring?
We went, and it was. I thought you’d scream, "I told you so"
BUT YOU DIDN’T.

Remember the time we went to the disco and I
picked up a new girl while I had my girlfriend?
I thought you’d give up on me
BUT YOU DIDN’T.

And remember the time I was drunk and driving?
You told me I shouldn’t drive but I insisted.
You came along to make sure I was alright.
I crashed.
I saw our beds side by side.
I decided I would say all this to you when you awoke
BUT YOU DIDN’T.
