Song Lyrics

I’m not sayin' that I love you
I’m not sayin' that I care
If you love me
I’m not sayin' that I care
I’m not sayin' I’ll be there
If you want me

I can’t give my heart to you
I tell you that I’ll sing your name
Until the sky
I can’t promise to be down
And I’ll always be around if you need me

May not be alone each time you see me
Out in the street or in a small cafe
Still I won’t deny
Or mistreat you
Baby if you let me have my way

I’m not sayin' 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 sayin' I’ll be true but I’ll try

I may not be home when you see me
Or show up when I promised I would
Said I won’t deny or mistreat you
Baby if you love me like you should

I’m not sayin' 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 sayin I’ll be true but I’ll try

I can’t say I’ll always do
The things you want me to
I’m not sayin' I’ll be true but I’ll try

Don’t try

Gordon Lightfoot
