I Could Love You

Keep it quiet
 But I'm about to lose my head
 I saw my baby on the corner
 She left me reelin' when she said
 I could love you
 But that would leave me in misery
 She said that love's hotel was open
 And there was now a vacancy
 She is a woman
 It's fair to say that I'm a man
 And love's all soon to be forgotten
 When you're forced to show your hand
 I can't stand it
 The way you're treatin' me so mean
 Yes, that's why I'm about to break down and cry
 And put an end to this crazy dream
 Neither one of us
 Wants to be left behind
 I can't do a thing to stop
 These tears that I cry
 So much hurt
 And now there's so much pain
 Guess I'm gonna remain sane, yeah
 Come tomorrow
 You're gonna find me all alone
 All been sold or in the garbage
 Or merely left out in the cold
 I could love you
 But that would leave me in misery
 So my heart is now the victim
 Of a murder in the first degree
 Neither one of us
 Wants to be left behind
 I can't do a thing to stop
 These tears that I cry
 So much hurt
 And now there's so much pain
 Guess I'm gonna
 Oh, oh, I never meant to make you cry
 Don't I need to feel 'em die
 Oh, oh, this is why and this is why
 Oh, oh, oh
