I'm Not Sayin' (Gordon Lightfoot) Songtext
von Gordon Lightfoot

I′m not sayin' that I love you
I′m not sayin' that I'll care if you love me
I′m not sayin′ that I'll care
I′m not sayin' I′ll be there when you want me
I can't give my heart to you
Or tell you that I′ll sing your name up to the sky
I can't lay the promise down
That I'll always be around when you need me

Now I may not be alone each time you see me
Along the street or in a small cafe
But still I won′t deny or mistreat you
Baby if you let me have my way


I′m not sayin' I′ll be sorry
For all the things that I might say that make you cry
I can't say I′ll always do
The things you want me to
I'm not sayin′ I'll be true but I'll try

Now I may not be alone each time you see me
Or show up when I promised that I would
But still I won′t deny or mistreat you
Baby if you love me like you should

I′m not sayin' I′ll be sorry
For all the things that I might say that make you cry
I can't say I′ll always do
The things you want me to
I'm not sayin′ I'll be true but I'll try
I can′t say I′ll always do
The things you want me to
I'm not sayin′ I'll be true but I′ll try
