Can't keep my head straight When my heart is so askew Can't keep my eyes closed When I'm lying next to you Why do you bother With those sweet nothings you proclaim? Well you don't mean them That just why you want me to say Well I'll say them anyway Because no one wants to be alone No more flowers Just as the winter Smothers the flowers in their beds It never ceases To amaze me how quickly love forgets And I can't remember you But no one wants to be alone And I'm just a coward No one wants to be alone And I'm just a coward No one wants to be alone No more flowers Can't no one wants to be alone (can't keep my head straight when my heart is so askew) And I'm just a coward (can't keep my eyes closed, when I'm lying next to you)
