Don't Be So Nice

Have you ever been lost in a friend's eye? I have
Have you ever been tossed by the wayside in an old friend's mind?

But don't be so nice, that's what you told me
Don't try so hard, ain't got a chance
I've got to go
Please, please forgive me, that's what I wanted anyway

Yeah, and have you ever been loved in a friend's eye? I have
Have you ever been lost and wanting a friend's smile?

Oh, but don't be so nice, that's what you told me
Don't try so hard, ain't got a chance
I've got to go
Please, please forgive me, that's what I wanted anyway
No, I wasn't asking you to stay

Oh, but don't be so nice, that's what you told me
Don't try so hard, ain't got a chance
I've got to go
Please, please, forgive me, that's what I wanted anyway
No, I wasn't asking you to stay
That's what I wanted you to say
