don't laugh now
Singer:ray stevens
we've known each other since we were in school
you always thought i was a crazy fool
'guess everyone thinks i'm quite a clown
you won't believe i'm serious with what i'm about to say
i know it's out of character for me to act this way
'cause i'm in love with you
i know you could never love me too
and i don't mean to embarrass you by letting my feelings show
it's not like me to let you see me lose my self control
just this once forgive me for wearing my heart on my sleeve
but i couldn't hold it any longer
i just had to let you know
you had a lot of sweethearts and i watched you love 'em
you had a lot of friends and i was just one of 'em
someone to pick you up when love would go wrong
help you through the rough times when you were all alone
all those many nights i held you and you never knew what i was feeling in my deepest heart for you
who has no right to say the foolish words i blurted out today
'cause i'm in love with you
i know you could never love me too
and i don't mean to embarrass you by letting my feelings show
it's not like me to let you see me lose my self control
just this once forgive me for wearing my heart on my sleeve
but i couldn't hold it any longer
i just had to let you know
