I Said She Said

I said, “Let’s spend the night together”
She said, “Is it for now or is it forever?”
I said, “I can’t promise you tomorrow”
She said, “Instead you promise me sorrow”
She said, “I don’t want to move so fast”
I said, “It doesn’t matter ‘cause love doesn’t last”
She said, “You don’t know how to love a woman”
I said, “I wonder if you know how to love a man”
I said, “What is it that you want?”
She said, “I’m not something to flaunt”
I said, “That’s not what you are to me”
She said, “But that’s all you’ll let me be”
She said, “Maybe I’m just not your type”
I said, “I just wanted to spend the night”
She said, “But I’ll only be a memory”
I said, “But a memory of you only”
I said, “We don’t have to spend the night”
She said, “I just want it to feel right”
I said, “It feels right to me but not to you”
She said, “That’s because I don’t know what to do”
She said, “I’m tired of waiting for you to make up your mind”
I said, “I know you’re the only love I’ll ever find”
She said, “But you act like you don’t know what you got”
I said, “I do but every girl talks about what it is I’m not”
I said, “I know I love you but is it about control?”
She said, “I don’t want anything but your heart and soul”
I said, “Ok, I’m gonna’ leave and I’ll call you tomorrow”
She said, “But only if you’re about love and not sorrow”
