In Love This Way
I'm lonely today,
Won't you come out to play when I'm with you
All the world goes away your smile and your eyes,
They keep me alive
Your voice is a bell that massages my mind
And it makes me wonder and it makes me sad
And it makes me nervous and it makes me mad
Because I think about you every night and day
And when I could have asked I let it slip away
I've got to get to know you, but I'm so afraid
Well it's so hard to be a friend and be in love
This way oh talk to me please,
You've brought me to my knees
Only your words melt my twenty year freeze
I've known you so long, I've known you all along
But suddenly my thoughts of you have been so strong
Because I wonder if I'm more than just a friend
Did I really see a fire
Or just inside my head
Sometimes I know you just want me to go away
Well it's so hard to be a friend
And be in love this way Karen,
May I see your blue eyes Karen,
May I tell you tonight that it makes me wonder
