It's Not You It's Me
Love's Apology: Unveiling the Depths of 'It's Not You It's Me' by Graham Gouldman
Lyrics
You thought we were happy thought we were good
You believed our relationship was happy and good.
But I did something wrong I misunderstood
I made a mistake, misunderstood, and did something wrong.
It wasn't your fault you must agree
It wasn't your fault; you must agree with that.
That it's not you it's me
The issue lies with me, not with you.
Love is my mistress love can be blind
Love is like a mistress and can be blind.
I went and deceived you that was unkind
I deceived you, and that was unkind.
Let sleeping dogs lie just let it be
Let things be, don't stir up trouble.
'Cause it's not you it's me
The problem is within me, not you.
Storm clouds are gatherin' rain's gonna fall
Difficult times are approaching, challenges are imminent.
Dark days are comin' be touchin' us all
Dark days are coming, affecting all of us.
So let's move it along, there's nothin' to see
Let's move forward; there's nothing to witness or dwell on.
'Cause it's not you it's me
The problems are mine, not yours.
It's been on my conscience burnin' my brain
Feeling guilty and troubled by my actions.
Feelin' so bad to have caused you such pain
I caused you pain, and it's been on my conscience.
It ain't your fault I'll set you free
Your pain is not your fault; I'll release you from it.
'Cause it's not you it's me
The source of the problem is within me, not you.
Storm clouds are gatherin' rain's gonna fall
More challenges are coming, affecting everyone.
Dark days are comin' be touchin' us all
Difficult times are approaching, touching all of us.
So let's move it along there's nothin' to see
Let's move forward; there's nothing to observe or linger on.
'Cause it's not you it's me
The issues persist within me, not you.
Let it go let it go
Release it, let it go.
You try but you can't let it go
You attempt to let go, but it's challenging.
Let it go let it go
Encouragement to release and move on.
You try but you can't let it go
Despite efforts, letting go remains difficult.
So I'm sat here thinkin' thinkin out loud
Reflecting on the situation, expressing thoughts openly.
How I should have told you but I was too proud
Regret for not communicating openly due to pride.
You thought we were two but I made it three
You thought we were a pair, but I made it a trio.
See it's not you it's me
Emphasizing that the issue is within me, not you.
It's not you it's me
Reiteration that the problem is not attributed to you.
It's not you
Confirmation that it's not your fault but mine.
