I'm Not Sayin' - Gordon Lightfoot

I’m not sayin' that I’ll 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' that 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 café

But still I won’t deny or mistreat you

Baby, if you’ll let me have my way

I’m not sayin' I’ll be sorry

For 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 promise that I would

But still I won’t deny you or mistreat you

Baby, if you loved 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
