Opened Hearted

I'm too nice, I could say
I think it might be a weakness
When someone walk bye
I have to say hi

When someone ask me to do them a favor
I could say no
But I don't
Afraid I may sound mean
Although they really aren't my friends

If I know someone needs help with money
And I have a little myself
I would give them my last
Cause that's the type of person I am

I wish I could say no sometime
Be less helpful sometime
But being a good person, is not a crime
