I wouldn’t say I’m in love with you
You pass through my mind each day
I think if I knew you loved me
I could just let you stay
You have so much going on
And I’ve so many cares
Why would we take the time
To see what’s really there
This is just too smooth for you
This is too plain easy
Girl keeps spilling ink for you
Boy could take or leave me
There is only so much time
That the window is open wide
And then you watch it close
Before you could decide
I can just hear you chuckling
At this uncomely tune
And as easily see you moping
If you learn that it’s not for you
I hope your dreams come alive
The ones we did not share
And when you take your final bow
That someone else is there
