I wanna tell you a story
'Bout a girl from NYU
And she thought it was funny
To break everybody's heart in two
I really thought that I might change her ways
Loved her so hard for a couple days
Baby here's what I say
I'd set the sinners free
That's what you mean to me
Give up my chance to be
That's what you mean to me, mean to me
I'd thought she'd listen
Staring back with those big blue eyes
Still something was missin'
As she looked away I got wise
I tried so hard to make it through
But there's always somethin' left to do
I'm coming back for you
I'd set the sinners free
That's what you mean to me
Give up my chance to be
That's what you mean to me, mean to me
We could jam
We could jam
We could jam all night
We could play our troubles away
We could pass it 'round
We could dig that sound
Warmin' up that cold December
She could dance
She could dance
She could dance all night
Makin' eyes at everybody but me
Such a bitter pill
But I love her still
That is all I can remember
Won't you free my mind
I'd set the sinners free
That's what you mean to me
Give up my chance to be
That's what you mean to me, mean to me
