For I don't know
If I can't say a word to her
And then if she's still on my mind
I won't have the time to think of her
I don't know but I'll think of something
And standing there what will I do
But by tonight, I'll think of something
And I can't speak but I'll think of something
I'll try to drink enough to drown the hurt
And if someday by accident we meet
I can't say today that I'm all right
To hide my love enough that it don't show
I'll find so many things to do that
I don't know how I'll get her off my mind
I'll blame it on this lump that's in my throat
Now that I'm free? I'll think of something
Where do I go for love that I still need
And if that don't work, I'll think of something
