I Never Meant To Hurt You

Barbra Streisand · Barbra Joan Streisand [1971]

I never meant to hurt you

I'm not that way at all

Please believe the words of the heart

A heart that seems so small



And I swear

I never meant to hurt you

I guess I lost my place

Please believe the words of the heart

A heart that hides its face



Why do I do things

I never mean to do

Oh oh oh oh why did I speak so carelessly

When all that I felt was love for you



And I swear

I never, I never meant to hurt you

I've got to make you know

Please believe the words of the heart

A heart that didn't show



I never meant to hurt you

I only meant to love you

It's true

And when I saw you crying

I cried too
