No, I Don't Think So

Jeffrey Gaines · Other Songs - Jeffrey Gaines

All I did was one thing wrong

I didn't sing your sweet love song

Still your voice remains on my machine

Speaking of what might have been

All I did was what I believed

I didn't think you'd be so deceived

Your smiling face in a photograph

Remember how I made you laugh

No, I don't think so

People only dwell on the pain

No, I don't think so

Don't think I'll see you again

I'll admit I left you there

And it seemed I didn't care

And I acted selfishly

But things just weren't right for me

I'll admit that I was scared

And that I was unprepared

Yeah, things were moving much too fast

Can't we put that all in the past

No, I don't think so

People only dwell on the pain

No, I don't think so

Don't think I'll see you again

Now I'll go my way and you'll go yours

A series of ugly words and slamming doors

And ever so often I wonder 'bout you

And I'd like to believe you're wondering 'bout me too

No, I don't think so

You never even let me explain

No, I don't think so

Don't think I'll see you again

No, I don't think so

People like you only dwell on the pain

No, I don't think so

Don't think I'll see you again
