I told you time and time again
That we would meet just as friends
And now i just can't seem to get my story through
If I'd known all about this then
I wouldn't have said the things I said
Im left now with a problem
What to do

'Cause i can't seem to tell her
Exactly the way i feel
I can't seem to find the words to show what i know is real

And if she calls me on the phone
Won't you tell her im not home
Just say I've gone so very far away
If she asks when ill return
Tell her that you have not learned
And that i might have plans to stay

'Cause I can't seem to tell her
Exactly the way I feel I
Can't seem to find the words to show what i know is real
I can't seem to tell her
Exactly the way I feel
I can't seem to find the words to show what I know is real
Here she comes again
This time surrounded by her friends
Do I pretend that I don't see her or say hi
She asks me if im free
I said: "I would, if it was up to me"
And pray she sees the truth behind my lie

'Cause I can't seem to tell her
Exactly the way I feel
I can't seem to find the words to show what i know is real
I can't seem to tell her
Exactly the way I feel
I can't seem to find the words to show what i know is real
