Petra Berger - I Couldn't Say No

Life without a care
Innocence to spare
Feeling free, secretly
Dreaming my dreams
Far too soon the day
Vowed my life away
To the man I'll obey
If I can, and I'm
Hopefully doing the family proud

The greatest man of France
Asking me to dance
Can't resist, can't ignore
Dreams coming true

Letter signed with "N"
Begging me again to be with him
Tonight, should I give in
He's taken my body and shattered my pride

His carriage is ready and waiting ouside
Will you admit you were with him last night?
I did what I did and believed it was right
Will you confess that your morals are low?
I only said yes 'cause I couldn't say no
..couldn't say no.. I couldn't put up a fight
The nation was saved overnight
Is it for the people or me -
That - I cry

Life beyond a dream
No more self-esteem
The battle's won, the war is lost,
lost with my love

the dove will fly away
Hoping that one day, I"ll be back with him
Can I keep track with him
Gave him my love, but I can't be his wife

You'll be the one who is exiled for life
Will you admit you were with him last night?
I did what I did and believed it was right
Will you confess that your morals are low?
I only said yes 'cause I couldn't say no
..couldn't say no..
