"I confess I ruined three lives. I did not care until I found out one of them was mine." One of the best lines ever written in a song!

You apparently missed the poetic and evocaative ageless poetry of "Won't you take me to Funkytown?" with its Shakespearean " Talk about, it, talk about, it talk about it."

Bear with me. These lyrics describe an incident in my life. 1992. Me--female. Co-worker-male. Strong attraction. Spent considerable time socializing outside the office. Fell in love with him. He allowed me to. Met each other's parents. It's all good. Until one night he "confessed". "Cards on the table time". Gay. Said he didn't want to be. Wished he could take a pill to become straight. Nevertheless he led me on for over a year. This song captures the mood perfectly. Especially the line "I confess that I've ruined three lives...One of them was mine". His deceiving me and another (straight) colleague who was interested in me ruined a few months of of our lives. Remember, I had to see this guy every day at work. But the deception ruined that time in his life as well. Should have sorted out his sexual preference before involving others. Think of him often and this song was the theme of the time. Do hope he's found the paradise he was searching for. And, thank God, this scenario took place pre-social media. So nice to awake memories with obscure song lyrics rather than plastered online for eternity. Wishing you well CMS.

That's nothing. I was there when Joe Bach was tinkering with his harpsichord and fixed it up into a well-tempered klavier, and Hank 8 came up with Greensleeves after giving his girlfriend the chop. And when the Mkulu Mbunde tribute band wailed on their nose flutes, just like the originals. And MY fingers did not slap our 1/2 billion emojis like a teenager watching porn in his bathroom.

I Confess Lyrics Just out of spite I confess I've ruined three lives Now don't sleep so tight Because I didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine Night after night time time after time Done too much of both types of w(h)ining Still wasn't right fight after fight Till "Get out of my life get away from me get away from that gun" "No it's not a joke it's cards on the table time Yes I could have phoned I could have spoke But how to break the news without breaking your heart Being dead don't hurt No only dying Cards on the table time Sometimes it's right to say goodnight." Always searching for paradise I'll admit that I'm good as blind Darling I confess yes I've ruined three lives And didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine I confess Our love seems like a punishment And I confess If it's all the same to you I'll stay indifferent I confess I confess I confess I confess I confess I confess No-one wins and there's no denying Don't pretend like you don't know why Just a little word here a little push there Darling I confess look I confess that I don't really care I confess I confess I confess Out like a light Another boy who's given up trying Blinded by fright He scream my life's not open Please get out I know I'm shouting I like to shout It's not a joke it's cards on the table time It's not a joke it's cards on the table time I could have phoned I could have spoke But how to break the news without breaking your heart Being dead don't hurt No only dying Cards on the table time Sometimes it's right to say goodnight."
