Once There Was a Girl

Once there was a girl who knew me well
And I think she fell for my darker side but I can't decide
Do I feel the same way

So I let her sweat which is nothing new
While I thought it through for a day or two it was the right thing to do
Or don't you think so

LOVE COME FOLLOW ME AROUND
I DON'T WANT TO KNOW YOU NOW
BUT THAT MAY NOT LAST FOREVER

How my sorrow grows with every passing day
'cause to be alone is the curse I've known and the price I pay
Every single day now

So my thoughts return to a girl I knew
Who I was sure would wait for her fickle fate but she could not wait
To prove me wrong

Well I'm too clever for her anyway
How can I get us together
'cause I'm so desperate and I need her today
I should have never let her get away

It's never or now so
DON'T FOLLOW ME AROUND
