I'M NOT SAYING

(Gordon Lightfoot)



I'm not saying that I love you

I'm not saying that I'll care if you love me

I'm not saying that I'll care

I'm not saying 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 you or mistreat you

Baby, if you'll let me have my way



I'm not saying 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 saying 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 you or mistreat you

Baby, if you love me like you should



I'm not saying 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 saying I'll be true, but I'll try
