Friend, this shouldn't be the way things end

But then, a break is just around the bend.

And when you tell me as I leave

You're scared you'll never see my face again

Well, I'm not sure it's the truth

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you

But I can and I will and I do

You write - I read your letters every night

All right, I skim them just to be polite.

I fight embarrassment and shame

The mention of your name makes me turn white

But guilt still makes me refrain

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you

But I can and I will and I do

I imagine you think I don't think of you

You know you couldn't be more wrong

If good intentions paved the road that gets me through

Then I've got a six-lane highway

And I intend to someday

Do all the things I say I can and I will and I do

Hey - it's hard for me to go away

Okay, I know it's not adult

But it's just as difficult for me to stay

And anyway you say

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you

You don't think I can love you love you love you love you

I can and I will and I do

I can and I will and I do
