I'm an honest man, I've held my tongue I've watched the morons mingle and get the job half done Never been to the top, no I've never even tried My principles and shyness have kept my hands tied When I see you dear, I lose my breath My silence and surrender dies a hundred deaths I need the taste of your foreign tongue I want first base I want home runs I never held you but I don't mind trying Sometimes silence is the same as lying Ahhh Oh Surrey girl, I love your rain To win your love, I'd walk from Maine I hear you speak, I lose my cool To win the game, I swear I'll break the rules You'll never say, "can't we just be friends" You'll feel my love, when I hit send I never held you but I don't mind trying Sometimes silence is the same as lying Ahhh Don't let me scare you, don't you be alarmed There's nothing in my heart ever do you harm We cannot fail, we must be bold We'll love these days I swear when we get old Ah come on love, there's no use crying Denying this love would just be lying I never held you but I don't mind trying Sometimes silence is the same as lying Ahhh
