I DIDN´T MEAN TO TURN YOU ON / ROBERT PALMER / NIVEL 2

When I took you out

Cuando te invite a salir
I knew what you were all about

Sabia lo que querías = pretendías
But when I did

Pero cuando lo hice
I didn't mean to turn you on

No fue mi intención el que te excitaras

Now I bring you home

Ahora que te llevo a casa
You told me goodnight's not enough for you

Me dijiste que las buenas noches no eran

 suficiente para ti
I'm sorry baby

Lo siento nena
I didn't mean to turn you on
No, I didn't mean to turn you on

You read me wrong

Me mal interpretas
I wasn't trying to lead you on

No era mi intención el darte entrada

= el cortejarte
Not like you think

No como tú crees

= lo concibes
I didn't mean to turn you on

I know you

Te conozco
We´re expecting a one night stand

Estamos esperando una relación pasajera

= sin compromisos
When I refused

Cuando me negué
I knew you wouldn't understand

Sabía que no lo entenderías

I told you babe

Te lo dije nena

I didn´t mean to turn you on
I told you twice

Te lo dije en dos ocasiones
I was only trying to be nice

Sólo intentaba ser amable
Only trying to be nice
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on

Babe now why should I

Cariño porqué debería ahora
Feel guilty 'cause I won't give

Sentir culpabilidad ya que no cedí

= no acepte
Guilty 'cause I won't give in
I didn't mean to turn you on
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on...
When I took you out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I didn't mean to turn you on
No, I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on....
