The City Mouse and the Country Mouse

I feel like I’ve known you so long And I feel like I could tell you anything But there is one thing I cannot say to you That I want you, need you, love you We talk and I laugh and smile But deep down inside, Bubbling to the surface There are words at the back of my throat Dying to get out That though I know we both have our flaws And imperfections, I know our hands would fit Perfectly together and I have a feeling You can dance really well And that you’d be one of the few That I can really be me around “But every time I tried to tell you The words just came out wrong” And our pasts just don’t permit us To be together anyway Not that I had a chance to be Worthy of all that you have to offer Because you’re a Harvard man And I’m a small town girl And I know you don’t feel that way But I don’t belong in your world Of aristocrats and dinner parties And politicians and expensive suits I know where I belong I belong with someone Who is a bit more like me But I can’t help who I love It happens automatically Not that you love me anyway It was just a thought That money doesn’t matter But my love is not to be bought.
