I'm Not Saying

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
