(written by Fred Knobloch, Steve Goodman)

I think I understand
The reason you won't stay with me
You think a ring upon your hand
Will solve your insecurity

So go ahead and play your games
If that's what you must do
Nothing here remains the same
But the way I feel for you

I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey I can't tell a lie

So figure out what you must do
I know you think you're so damn clever
You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever

I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey I can't tell a lie

Figure out what you must do
I know you think you're so damn clever
You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever

You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever
