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    I'm 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 I'm not home    Just say I've gone so very far away    If she asks when I'll 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 dont see her or say hi    She asks me if I'm free    I said I would if it was up to me    And pray she sees the truth behind my lie       Cuz   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
