I almost told a girl "I think you're pretty." But then I burnt my tongue Since when did I cower Oh pity! Yes, I said it Well didn't say it But she's got A radiant smile And eyes that glow I can't tire from her laugh It gives me strength I'm entangled in a thousand No a million thoughts When I see her But my friend is closer Too close I say She might be taken I thought, I swore out loud I never stood a chance But it's kinda dumb She's still my friend We love each other But I still dream That she becomes my lover Oh Misery! Have pity! Why can't someone like her Kiss me on the lips and say "You're mine."?

Fool's Ballad
I almost told a girl "I think you're pretty." But then I burnt my tongue Since when did I cower Oh pity! Yes, I said it Well didn't say it But she's got A radiant smile And eyes that glow I can't tire from her laugh It gives me strength I'm entangled in a thousand No a million thoughts When I see her But my friend is closer Too close I say She might be taken I thought, I swore out loud I never stood a chance But it's kinda dumb She's still my friend We love each other But I still dream That she becomes my lover Oh Misery! Have pity! Why can't someone like her Kiss me on the lips and say "You're mine."?
