Dolly Parton - Because One of Us Was Wrong lyrics

(Tom Paxton - Dolly Parton - Bill Owens)

I'm sorry I was weak enough to step out on you

Well I should have been strong enough not to step out on you too

I know that I'd hurt you and I stepped out for spite

Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right.

I'm not making excuses for myself I was wrong as I could be

But you shouldn't have cheapened yourself trying to get even with me

My conscience bothers me mine won't let me sleep at night

Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right.

Two wrongs don't make one right and now we both got heartaches

But if we both try we can forgive each other for our mistakes

We let no wonderful love slip through our hands we'd better hold on tight

Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right.

Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right...
