Sorry to ruin your afternoon when
You showed up at my house, but I just couldn't come out
Yeah, I always do this
You know I'm not clueless
I push away the love that I've found

It's not that I don't want this, I don't want to waste your time
You give me all your heart, but I can't give you all of mine
I'm sorry, but you know that

I can't call you baby like you want me to
You need much more than I can offer you
I hope you'll find someone who'll adore you now
In a way I never knew how
Don't want to string you along
I can't love you like you want

Trust me, I've tried to imagine me with you
You're everything I ever could've dreamed about
You're practically perfect and I don't deserve it
I guess I know that deep, deep down

That even with a spark, it doesn't mean it's gonna light
You give me all your heart, but I can't give you all of mine
I'm sorry, but you know that

I can't call you baby like you want me to
You need much more than I can offer you
I hope you'll find someone who'll adore you now
In a way I never knew how
Don't want to string you along

Don't want to string you along
I can't love you like you want
