Here's the Thing

I should spare the time.

And I should really bother.

But it seems way less effort just to lead you on, 

Than say it to your face and sack it off.



Lover, here's the deal: you like me more than I like you and ever will.

Lover, here's the deal: I like you liking me.



It's a deal, I won't bring it up.



Keep quiet, say I want to take things slow.

Keep quiet just to fob you off some more.



I should really try, 

But I don't want that power.

And I don't have the confidence to have that chat.

Rather wait it out, avoid a scrap.



Lover, you like me more than I like you and ever will.

Lover, you like I like you liking me.



It's a deal, I won't bring it up.



Keep quiet, say I want to take things slow.

Keep quiet just to fob you off some more.



You like I like you liking me.



It's a deal, I won't bring it up.



Keep quiet, say I want to take things slow.

Keep quiet just to fob you off some more.



You just fill the time, lover.
