Lesley Gore - I Struck A Match Lyrics

I went to a hop with my boyfriend
We were dancing to our favourite song
Somebody turned out the lights and he walked away
He said he wouldn't be gone too long

I struck a match and there he was a kissing her
I struck a match and there he was a holding her
It took a match to catch him doing me wrong

Well it was dark and I couldn't see her face
But I saw her hitting on my guy
All the kids were dancing and having fun
But I couldn't do a thing but cry

I struck a match and there he was a kissing her
I struck a match and there he was a holding her
It took a match to catch him doing me wrong

Well I wiped away the tears and turned my head
So no-one could see
But my girlfriend heard me crying asked me
So I said, a match burned me

The lights went on at the hop
And my boyfriend came back to my side
He said he went for a soda
I said honey I know you've lied

'Cause I struck a match and I saw you kissing
I struck a match and you were holding her
It took a match to catch him doing me wrong

I wiped away the tears and turned my head
So no-one could see
Well my boyfriend heard me crying asked me
So I said, a match burned me

I struck a match and there he was a kissing
I struck a match and he was holding her
It took a match to catch him doing me wrong

Doing me wrong, yeah doing wrong
Yeah doing me wrong, he was doing me wrong
