By the way
I'd like to tell you about all the things I feel
By the way
I think it's important for people to be real
With one another
Woman there's no time for tellin' lies

Still I get the strangest feelin'
When I look into your eyes
I get the strangest feelin'
When I look into your eyes

When we talk
You never seem to look me in the face
When we talk
It's like your thoughts are in some other place
Come on and tell me
What it is that's runnin' through your mind

'Cause I get the strangest feelin'
That you're leavin' me behind
I get the strangest feelin'
That you're leavin' me behind now

La de di
La de di
(Instrumental break)

If I could
I'd like to show you just how much I care
If I could
Perhaps you'd see I'm tryin' to be fair
And make it easy
For you to really open up your heart

'Cause we can start things over, lady
Or let them fall apart
We can start things over
Or let them fall apart now

By the way
I'd like to tell you about all the things I feel
By the way
I think it's important for people to be real
With one another
