I wish it was simple to come up and talk to you
(It really is you just need to do)
But my nerves get the best of me and I assume
(What's there to be so afraid of)
That you've heard it all before and this ain't nothing new
Just another guy with something left to prove
Promise if you give it time, I'll speak to you
My heart can't take more of this
(It's your own fault you're too shy to do it)
'Cause a good night's sleep is when I dream of you
(Too bad you can't live inside your head)
That you've heard it all before and this ain't nothing new
Just another guy with something left to prove
Promise if you give it time, I'll speak to you
I guess I'll never know if you felt the same
(Lesson learned he found out the hard way)
I bided my time too long and now she's gone
To talk to you again
Would be the perfect way the story ends
But I guess I'll wait for next year
(To come around and tell you how I feel)
My love is strong but what I fear
(That you moved on that you found somebody who)
That you moved on, that you found somebody else
Someone close living I guess in your hometown
I never thought that I was capable
(Of jealousy he's lying to himself)
I thought that I was strong enough
You never made it seem like we'd
Stop talking after what was shared
I thought I finally found one
I thought that I was strong enough
You never made it seem like we'd
Stop talking after what was shared
I thought I finally found one
