Don't Get Me Wrong - The Pretenders

Don’t get me wrong

if I’m looking kind of dazzled.

I see neon lights

Whenever you walk by.

Don’t get me wrong

If you say «hello» and I take a ride

Upon a sea where the mystic moon

Is playing havoc with the tide,

Don’t get me wrong.

Don’t get me wrong

If I’m acting so distracted.

I’m thinking about the fireworks

That go off when you smile.

Don’t get me wrong

If I split like light refracted.

I’m only off to wander

Across a moonlit mile.

Once in awhile,

Two people meet,

Seemingly for no reason,

They just pass on the street.

Suddenly thunder,

Showers everywhere,

Who can explain the thunder and rain but There’s something in the air.

Don’t get me wrong

If I come and go like fashion.

I might be great tomorrow

But hopeless yesterday.

Don’t get me wrong

If I fall in the ‘mode of passion.'

It might be unbelievable

But let’s not say «so long.»

It might just be fantastic,

Don’t get me wrong.
