    Lyrics »

It's true, yes it's true
I'm as guilty of the sin as you
I lived through it too
And as you can see it didn't hurt me
You must admit, you helped a bit
It takes two to tango
You know I wasn't alone
It takes two to tango
I remember it still
Drink a toast if you will

This is for the girls who just couldn't see
That my only sin was being me
And this one's for the girls and they know who they are
It's so long ago and I don't know

Now I don't recall all the details of the scene at all
But I had a ball
And learned all the games, forgot all the names
You must admit you learned a bit

This is for the girls who couldn't understand
What it's like to try to be a man
And this one's for the girls and they know who they are
It's so long ago and I don't know
I don't claim to know at all
Who was right and who was wrong
I just don't remember all
All the things that were said
What went on in my head
But it's easy to see that I used you and you used me

This is for the girls who think i've done wrong
Could you really hold a grudge that long
And this ones for the girls and they know who they are
It's so long ago and I don't know who you are
