Between The Trees

This call was meant to be brief
A simple hello ending with goodbye
Then you say hello, now
I am melting
And now my goodbye
Becomes a goodnight
I don't mind if you don't mind
Please say you do not mind
If this call goes on all night
'Cause I have more to say
My afternoon was okay
My evening was fine, but this night
I want it to be the best night of our lives
Sweet darlin'
This is my confession to
The crimes of wanting you badly
And darlin', if you're wondering
Here's your answer
Yes, I like you
I don't love you
I can't love you
Yet
These calls are getting longer
These nights go on (nights go on) forever
I do believe I'm getting better
Knowing you
Hopefully all of you
Sitting watching movies
We both know we do not watch a bit of it
'Cause I am much too busy
Leaving my hand close enough
So you'll hold it
Sweet darlin'
This is my confession to
The crimes of wanting you badly
And darlin', if you're wondering
Here's your answer
Yes, I like you
I don't love you
I can't love you
And I cannot stop thinking about you
I cannot stop wondering
If you're constantly thinking about me
And don't close your eyes, dear
I'm still staring
I won't lie, dear
I'm still breathing
Even though your beauty is breath-taking
Sweet darlin'
This is my confession to
The crimes of wanting you badly
And darlin', if you're wondering
Here's your answer
Yes, I like you
I can't love you
I can't love you
Or at least I do not think I do
