I Got a Mind to Tell You Lyrics

What I've been tryin' to tell you for so long
Don't want to get it wrong

But I got a heart that's soft and
Too open all too often
That's a dangerous little combination

And I'm afraid a little brush aside
Could irreparably impair my pride
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will

Don't want to take it easy
Don't wanna play the game of be a friend
I came with false pretenses

And playing hard to get is getting me nowhere fast
Should I confess or lower my defenses?

Do I say the words I want to say
And risk the chance that you will run away?
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will

I got a mind to let you know
Cause I can't hold it inside

Do I say the words I want to say
And risk the chance that you will run away?
I got a mind to tell you, but I never will
