She was 16 and 6 feet tall with a crowd of teenagers comin' out of the zoo She stumbled, start to slip and fall, teeter tottered on the top of patent leather shoes I happened to catch her and said, Maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you maybe for you.. now.. But not as shaky as I must have seemed, talkin' junk to forgive a little teenage dream And on the phone I could not compete but dumb luck fake confidence was getting weak And for a sec I thought I sounded sweet, but sure enough in a gruff faint voice I heard myself speak I could stay awhile, but sooner or later I'll break your smile And I can tell a joke, but one of these days I'm bound to choke And we could share a kiss But I feel like I can't go through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing for me to do Is to leave you alone.. leave you alone now.. I'm beginning to like you, so you probably won't get what I'm going to do I'm walkin' away from you, it probably don't make much sense to you But I'm tryin' to save you, from all of the things that I'll probably say I'll do I probably do I could stay awhile, but sooner or later I'll break your smile And I can tell a joke, but one of these days I'm bound to choke And we might share a kiss But I feel like I can't go through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing for me to do SongtexteIs to leave you alone leave you alone now You'll probably call me a fool and say I'm doing exactly what a coward would do And I'm beginning to like you, it's a shame what a lame way to live, but what can I do? I hope you appreciate what I do I'm a martyr for my love for you (Thanks to jake for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
