My Nice-Friend Face

You were the one who wanted this from the start
You offered me your ring before I offered my heart
You have yourself convinced that I am what you need
Who knew you'd have us figured out
Before you talked to me?

I tried not to lead you on, but my best just shines
When I put my nice friend face on
It's a mess, you think too much of me I guess
Now I'm the one who has to lay it out
And let you down easy

May I remind you that I never said one darn thing
That I thought would get this into your head
But it's there now, you are smitten hands down
And I'm the best to blame
Because I'm just nice from the get go

I tried not to lead you on
But you misread me
And I mistakenly smiled for too long
It's a mess you think too much of me I guess
Now I'm the one who has to lay it out
I'm the one who has to bring it up
I'm the one who has to clear it up
And let you down easy
