I'm lonely today, won't you come out to play   When I'm with you all the world goes away   your smile and your eyes, they keep me alive   Your voice is a bell that massages my mind      And it makes me wonder   And it makes me sad   And it makes me nervous   And it makes me mad      Because I think about you every night and day   And when I could have asked I let it slip away   I've got to get to know you, but I'm so afraid   Well it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way      Oh talk to me please, you've brought me to my knees   Only your words melt my twenty year freeze   I've known you so long, I've known you all along   But suddenly my thoughts of you have been so strong      And it makes me wonder   And it makes me sad   And it makes me nervous   And it makes me mad      Because I wonder if I'm more than just a friend   Did I really see a fire - or just inside my head   Sometimes I know you just want me to go away   Well it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way      Karen, may I see your blue eyes   Karen, may I tell you tonight   That it makes me wonder
