[Verse 1]
I'm lonely today, won't you come out to play?
When I'm with you, all the world goes away
Your smile and your eyes, they keep me alive
Your voice is a bell that massages my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
And it makes me wonder
And it makes me sad
And it makes me nervous
And it makes me, oh, so mad

[Chorus]
Because I think about you every night and day
And when I could have asked, I let it slip away
Well, I've got to get to know you, but I'm so afraid
Well, it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way
Be in love this way
Be in love this way

[Verse 2]
Oh, talk to me please, you've brought me to my knees
Only your words melt my twenty-year freeze
I've known you so long, I've known all along
But suddenly, my thoughts of you are so strong
[Pre-Chorus]
And it make me wonder
And it makes me sad
And it makes me nervous
And it makes me, oh, so mad

[Chorus]
Because I wonder if I'm more than just a friend
Did I really see a fire, or just inside my head?
Sometimes I know you just want me to go away
Well, it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way
Be in love this way
Be in love this way

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Karen, may I
See your blue eyes?
Karen, may I
Tell you tonight
That it makes me wonder?
