[Intro]

Why'd you lead me on?

Where did we go wrong? (We go wrong)

Same sad song (Yeah)

Why'd you st-st-st-steer me wrong?

Puttin' crazy thoughts in my head

Put-put-put-put... puttin' crazy thoughts in my head

Puttin' crazy-crazy... crazy thoughts in my head

Put-put-puttin'... puttin'... puttin' crazy thoughts in my head

[Verse 1]

I remember what you said

When you were layin' my bed (Oooh)

Believein' every word you said

Puttin' crazy thoughts in my head

You painted a picture, so sweet I can taste (Uh-huh)

Lies undetected, not even a trace

[Chorus]

Why'd you steer me wrong?

You kept me holding on

When you were already gone

Already gone

Why'd you lead me on?

Where did we go wrong? (We go wrong)

Same sad song (Yeah)

Why'd you steer me wrong?

[Verse 2]

Make believe

Figure that you'd never leave

Now you got me, thinkin' twice

(When you wanna) You wanna spend the night, baby

Now, if a man only has his word

Then you would be speechless (Uh-huh)

So you can understand

Why I don't understand (Why'd youuu)

[Chorus]

Why'd you steer me wrong?

You kept me holding on

When you were already gone

Already gone

Why'd you lead me on? (Lead me on)

Where did we go wrong? (Same sad song)

Same sad song

Why'd you steer me wrong?

[Bridge]

(Ooh)

You performed a charade, yes, you did (Ah-ooh)

Lukewarm, a game you played with me (Ah-ooh)

From day one, I stayed

'Cause I thought you cared for me (Cared)

And I'm still wondering why (Ooh)

You performed a charade, yes you did (Ah-ooh)

Lukewarm, a game you played with me, yeah (Ah-ooh)

From day one, I stayed

'Cause I thought you cared for me (Cared)

And I'm still wondering why

[Chorus]

Why'd you steer me wrong? (Steer me wrong)

You kept me holding on (Holding on)

When you were already gone, already gone

Why'd you lead me on? (Lead me on)

Where did we go wrong?

Same sad song, yeah

Why'd you steer me wrong?

[Outro]

Why'd you steer me wrong?

Where did we go wrong?

Yeah, yeah, yeah
