Lyrics Lesley Gore

Lesley Gore

What Did I Do Wrong?

I touched you softly as I would a child

I listened to your problems like a friend

I opened up my soul, told you every fear and goal

For you I lied, for you I stole

I forgave you and forgot the times

You treated me so wrong

So tell me what, my wild and careless love did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?

I felt you slipping far away from me

And building up imaginary walls

You wanted to be free

But you could have been with me

You wanted you, I wanted we

And I knew you'd have to leave

But never knew how long

So tell me what, my sweet and thoughtless love did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?

Was it wrong to make you laugh

Was it wrong to worship you

I can make it on my own

It's just that I don't want to

And I knew you'd have to go

But didn't know how long

So tell me what, my lost and priceless love did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?
