Your words are so careful and soft
But your actions are hurting my ears
You can tell me it's something special that we have
But I have my doubts and my fears
If you're not sure you want me today
I surely don't want to pretend
I won't sit here and wait for you to open your heart's door
I've accepted that I'm just a friend
When it seems I've always somewhere to go
Don't take it harshly, sometimes a yes man must say no
When the time comes and I'm never around
You see, often I act up, but I'm really very down
I'm not meaning to upset you
I'm just needing to forget you
At least til my feet touch the ground
