My head's in a jam
can't take you off my mind
from the time we met
i've been beset by thoughts of you
and the more that i ignore this feeling
the more i find myself believing
that i just have to see you again
I can't let you pass me by
i just can't let you go
but i know that i am much too shy
to let you know
afraid that i might say the wrong words
and displease you
afraid for love to fade
before it can come true
Like a child again
i'm at a loss for words
how does one define
a crush combined with longing?
longing to possess you oh so dearly
i'm obsessed by you completely
i'll go mad if i can't have you
I can't let you pass me by
i just can't let you go
but i know that i am much too shy
to let you know
afraid that i might say the wrong words
and displease you
afraid for love to fade
before it can come true
(instrumental)
I can't let you pass me by
i just can't let you go
let me say the things and say the words
to let you know
i would rather say the awkward words
than lose you
or for love to fade
before it can come true
