I think it's time you heard the truth
And it should come from me
I didn't want to tell you this way
Wanted it to happen naturally

Like maybe we could take a walk
And I could make you laugh
Cook you dinner at my place
We could see what happens next

But the word got out about me
Didn't know it was so easy to tell
I guess it's just as well that you should know
Even though I never held you
I don't wanna let you go

Now you don't have to say a thing
Sometimes I come on strong
I hope this doesn't scare you away
Just because I put you in the song

But the word got out about me
Didn't know it was so easy to tell
I guess it's just as well that you should know
Even though I never held you
I don't wanna let you go

We could spend the afternoon
Lying in the grass
How long has it been since someone
Made you wonder where the day was?

But the word got out about me
Didn't know it was so easy to tell
I guess it's just as well that you should know
Even though I never held you, even though I never held you
I don't wanna let you go, I don't wanna let you go

I wanna make you laugh, I wanna make you smile
We could take a walk, I wanna walk with you
