When I kissed you I swallowed my chewing gum Your warm breath it left me blind, deaf, and dumb I’ll speak if you want me to, I just don't know what I'd say Cuz every time I open my mouth the words... They slip away But just as you walk out of reach it’s "I love you" And just as I'm back on my feet is "lay back down" And if there’s a smile on my face, I don't mean to It's just the expression of a clown Well you could never be the second to another And if I said I didn’t need you, well I guess it was a lie I wanna show you that I meant to be a man And if I couldn't be a lover, well I guess I didn't try But just as you walk out of reach it’s "I love you" And just as I'm back on my feet is "lay back down" And if there’s a smile on my face, I don't mean to It's just the expression of a clown
