You Were Only Teasing Me

You Were Only Teasing Me - Ernest Tubb

Lyrics by：Ernest Tubb

Composed by：Ernest Tubb

Once I held you in my arms

And you thrilled me with your charm

But I knew you were only teasing me

And you said that you'd be true

But I knew just what you'd do

You'd break my heart

And then you'd say we're through

Sweetheart you even said

You'd rather be dead

Than for me to be far away

Now it's coming home to you

And I know that you'll be blue

'Cause you knew you were only teasing me

Aaah

Each mistake dear that you've made

Leaves a debt that must be paid

That can't be done with just an IOU

But you must pay with your heart

Pay in full and not in part

You can't know happiness until you do

Sweetheart you even said

You'd rather be dead

Than for me to be far away

Now it's coming home to you

And I know that you'll be blue

'Cause you knew you were only teasing me
