Ronnie Lee

(album: Track Of The Cat - 1975)

Here we are all alone
In the middle of the night
In a small café
Lit just by candlelight
Not one word have you said
No expression on your face
As you sit there staring
Somewhere into space
Treating me as if I'm taking
Someone's place

Oh, Ronnie Lee
You try so hard
To hurt a girl's feelings
Ronnie Lee
You're playing a part
Don't think I don't know it
Ronnie Lee
Can't you see
That there's really no need
To play your part for me
'Cause the image you portray
Is not the man I see

There you sit, face aglow
As if touched by heaven's light
But you told me
That it's just the candlelight
Deep within there's a voice
Telling me it isn't so
That you're just afraid
To let your feelings show
But you're hiding something
I already know

Oh, Ronnie Lee
You try so hard
To hurt a girl's feelings
Ronnie Lee
You're playing a part
Don't think I don't know it
Ronnie Lee
Can't you see
That there's really no need
To play your part for me
'Cause the image you portray
Is not the mean I see

Oh, Ronnie Lee
You try so hard
To hurt a girl's feelings
Ronnie Lee
You're playing a part
Don't think I don't know it

Ronnie Lee
You try so hard
To hurt a girl's feelings
Ronnie Lee
You're playing a part
Don't think I don't know it...
