Perhaps
in a little while,
you'll think of me and smile
And all your memories
will be tinged with light and gold
Despite all my best results,
the pain didn't quite dissolve
There's this tiny little shot,
and it's ever so cold
I've never felt such a cold
A high shrill winter time
And time's a funny thing
It steals away and leaves
no signs or traces
Our love was an open book
We gave back all we took
And no one was the wiser
from the start to the end
My love didn't quite surprise
You called the game off twice
If I can't be your girl
I don't want to be friends
What do you mean by friends?
Will we meet in that same cafe?
And if our hands should touch,
you'll flash a look
And we'll pre
tend we're lovers
Will we talk till dawn?
Will we walk the shore?
Keep a careful distance
Lest the heart crave more
Might a tender glance
Reignite the flame
If we played the movie over
But would it end the same?
To keep up this light pretense
It never made much sense
I cannot say I love you
Cause that's not what
friends say
I've stayed up thinking
And if you love me still,
things should not be this way
Let's pave a brand new way
And in a little while,
perhaps it won't be long
before you think of me and smile
