Mean To Me Lyrics - Recurring Dream: The Very Best Of Crowded House - Crowded House

She came all the way from America 

She had a blind date with destiny 

And the sound of Te Awamutu 

Had a truly sacred ring 

Now her parents 

Are divorced 

And her friend's committing suicide 

I could not escape 

A plea from the heart 

You know what it means to me 

She said don't walk away 

I'm down on my knees 

So please don't be mean to me

So I talked to you for an hour 

In the bar of a small town hotel 

And you asked me what I was thinking 

I was thinking of a padded cell 

With a black and white T.V. 

To stop us from getting lonely 

I could not escape 

A plea from the heart 

You know what it means to me 

You said don't walk away 

I'm down on my knees 

So please don't be mean to me 

You know I could not escape 

A plea from the heart 

Mysterious sympathy 

I couldn't wait for a chance 

Walk out the door 

You know what it means to me

I... 

I... 

I saw you lying in the arms of a poet 

I 

I heard him tell you ta... tantalizing 

Lies 

What'd'ya know 

Whad'd'ya know 

I could not escape 

You're down on the floor 

You know what it means to me 

I couldn't wait for a chance 

Walk out the door 

Mean... 

Mean... 

I could not escape 

Down on my knees 

You know what it means 

What it means 

What it means 

In the arms of a poet 

You know what it means
