Lyrics for 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
