Nancy
I don't know if you realize
but when I look straight in your eyes
I get a little scared because I love you
Don't know what's got into me
You can call it insecurity
but I'm afraid it would ruin everything
if you knew
You're the lady in the garden
so soft but somehow hard
I'm just a guy who buys your time with conversation
but the pain I feel is pleasure
for the times with you I treasure
in any given simple situation
but upon my life I swear
there is nothing for you to fear
no complications or storm clouds of emotion
though my heart's on overtime
I know it's no ones fault but mine
a little less burning a little more devotion
I can be somewhat cynical
because I've had a belly full
of being the only one in love
but It's not quite the same with you
I've done my time and paid my dues
I don't believe push always comes to shove
so should you rather walk alone
this world that we're walking on
it won't be all that much worse for the wear
I'll put my heart back on the shelf
and from time to time console myself
that I was the only one who ever cared
but upon my life I swear
there's nothing for you to fear
no complications or storm clouds of emotion
though my hearts working overtime
I know it's no ones fault but mine
a little less burning a little more devotion
I don't know if you realize
but when I look straight in your eyes
I get a little scared because I love you
