lyrics

i bought your record at the store
without knowing quite what i would be in for
there you were
for all to see
you're just like me

played it back to back all night
and everyone was saying i would be just right
before i knew
i'm standing there next to you

CHORUS:
sometimes i bite my tongue
you understand
more and more i realize that i
i can't play in your band

you wear your heart upon your sleeve
telling truths i'm finding harder to believe
closing in on every chord
i can't afford

everday that i play
i don't say
i'm setting myself up
to run away
