You and I travel to the beat of a different drum Oh, can't you tell by the way I run Every time you make eyes at me, whoa You cry and always say it will work out But honey child, I've got my doubts You can't see the forest for the trees But don't get me wrong It's not that I knock it It's just that I am not in the market For a boy who wants to love only me Yes, and I ain't saying you ain't pretty All I'm saying is I'm not ready For any person, place or thing To try and pull the reins in on me So goodbye, I'll be leaving I see no sense in this crying and grieving We'll both live a lot longer If you live without me So don't get me wrong It's not that I knock it It's just that I am not in the market For a boy who wants to love only me Yes, and I ain't saying you ain't pretty All I'm saying is I'm not ready (I'm not ready) For any person, place or thing To try and pull the reins in on me So goodbye, I'll be leaving I see no sense in this crying and grieving We'll both live a lot longer If you live without me
