[Verse 1]
I'm not saying that I love you
I'm not saying that I care if you love me
I'm not saying that I care
I'm not saying I'll be there when you want me
[Verse 2]
I can't give my heart to you
Or tell you that I'd sing your name up to the sky
I can't lay the promise down
That I'll always be around when you need me
[Bridge]
Now I may not be alone each time you see me
Along the street or in a small café
But still I won't deny you or mistreat you
Baby, if you let me have my way
[Verse 3]
I'm not saying I'll be sorry
For all the things that I might say that make you cry
I can't say I'll always do the things you want me to
I'm not saying I'd be true but I'd try
[Bridge]
Now I may not be alone each time you see me
Or show up when I promised that I would
But still I won't deny you or mistreat you
Baby, if you love me like you should
[Verse 3]
I'm not saying I'll be sorry
For all the things that I might say that make you cry
I can't say I'll always do the things you want me to
I'm not saying I'd be true but I'd try
I can't say I'll always do the things you want me to
I'm not saying I'd be true but I'd try
