Perhaps I tried too hard
To win your heart
Perhaps I tried too hard
Guess I wasn't smart
For me the ways of love
Are strange and new
And after lonely so long I don't know what to say or do
Perhaps I looked at you
Too much too long
Perhaps I moved too fast
And you took it wrong
I don't know what I did
Or what I did not say
Perhaps I tried too hard
And frightened you away
Perhaps I looked at you
Too much too long
Perhaps I moved too fast
And you took it wrong
I don't know what I did
Or what I did not say
Perhaps I tried too hard
And frightened you away
I don't know why
I'm much too shy
And when your shy
You over try
Perhaps that's why
I frightened you away
Perhaps I tried too hard
