I´m gonna try my best to love him
Don´t know why I want him so
Yeah I´ll try and keep him by my side
I won´t ever let him go
Oh I´ve learned too much in my poor life
To laugh at humor I can´t see
It´s sad I know that I can´t show
My love, but I won´t set him free
So I´m gonna try my best to love him
Even if it takes all night long
Even if this feeling hurts me
I´ve heard pain can make you strong
And I know that I´m not his girl
Really never thought I´d care
But to see him in your arms
That´s the one thing I can´t bear
If you said I had no heart
Well I hardly think I´d cry
‘Cause there ain´t one thing you know ‘bout me
That I´d bother to deny
And it´s not that I don´t find him sweet
I know too well his voice, his touch
His eyes, and often underneath
I wonder that I try this much
Still it would be a shameful lie
To say I love this boy, this man
But I am fond and he is fine
So in the end perhaps I can
I agree this child deserves
A better friend and lover too
But I´m gonna try my best to love him
Just to keep him far from you
