Not In That Way

Sam Smith · In The Lonely Hour [2014]

And I hate to say I love you

When it's so hard for me

And I hate to say I want you

When you make it so clear

You don't want me



I'd never ask you cause deep down

I'm certain I know what you'd say

You'd say I'm sorry believe me

I love you but not in that way



And I hate to say I need you

I'm so reliant

I'm so dependant

I'm such a fool



When you're not there

I find myself singing the blues

Can't bear

Can't face the truth



You will never know that feeling

You will never see through these eyes



I'd never ask you

Cause deep down I'm certain I know what you'd say

You'd say I'm sorry

Believe me

I love you

But not in that way



You'd say I'm sorry

Believe me

I love you

But not in that way
