Music: Stu Larsen
Misty morning by the riverside
The day is calling out my name
Hope is forming in the shadows of our time
A change is surely on the way
For you and me, for you and me
When we were talking in the middle of the night
And love was falling out of me
I heard the warning but I was blinded by the light
I know you saw me try to hide the way I feel
From you and me
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
I wouldnât need to write these lines
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
Youâd know that I just lied
You lay before me on the kitchen floor
We were both exploring what might be
Seems like torture not to open up this door
I canât ignore it when I know that it is real
With you and me
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
I wouldnât need to write these lines
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
Youâd know that I just lied
But I promise with my life
That until the end of time
This will be my only lie
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
I wouldnât need to write these lines
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
Can you feel it on my face as I turn the other way?
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
Can you hear it in my voice as I choose to make a choice?
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
And if you could read my mind I wouldnât need to write these lines
I donât wanna be your lover anyway
If only you could read my mind
