Like foolish lovers

I could sit
sit and gaze at you
Like foolish lovers do
And lose myself in you
With these puppy dog eyes
Telling bittersweet lies
I could sit and gaze at you

I could sing
Sing a tune for you
Like foolish lovers coo
Something so sad and blue
Of my longing
And my fawning over
You, I could sing a tune

But where
Where would I go from there
Could beat around the bush
And all your buttons push
I hate to be this way
So full of old cliches
Trust, I’m no good for you
This much I know is true

I could leave
Leave you high and dry
Like foolish lovers lie
And say the thrill is gone
That’s why I’ll travel on
Pretend I never knew
you, Now I leave you
