There must be something wrong with me
that I can't look at someone
without wondering if I am
in his mind, or in his heart
I can't look at anyone
without constantly thinking
do you like me, or do you love me?
even after so many false starts
for reasons I can't give away
I know you won't like me like that
for reasons I can't tell anyone
I know that I can't act like that
I know that I can't
there must be something wrong with me
that even though I understand
that you would never think of me like that
I still believe there are feelings to find
there must be some call for love
deep inside of me
that I would mentally beg you
to change your mind
I can't ask for advice on this
I know that I can't fall in love with you
I could only explain it to you
but since it's about you I can't
I know that I can't tell anyone
I know that I can't think too highly of you
I don't want to think about how you might react
how would you react?
nevermind
I know that I can't.
