I Got a Mind to Tell You

I got a mind to tell you
What I’ve been tryin’ to tell you for so long
Don’t want to get it wrong
But I got a heart that’s soft and
Too open all too often
That’s a dangerous little combination
And I’m afraid a little brush aside
Could irreparably impair my pride
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will
Don’t want to take it easy
Don’t wanna play the game of be a friend
I came with false pretenses
And playing hard to get is getting me nowhere fast
Should I confess or lower my defenses?
Do I say the words I want to say
And risk the chance that you will run away?
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will
I got a mind to let you know
Cause I can’t hold it inside
Do I say the words I want to say
And risk the chance that you will run away?
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will
