On The Sentimental Side

If you're wondering why i'm near you,
even though i've been denied,
I'm inclined to be a little,
on the sentimental side..

I suppose i should forget you,
if i had an ounce of pride,
but i guess i can't help being,
on the sentimental side..

I should act gay,
laugh it off and say farewell,
say it's all good and wear well,
but i'm not that way..

I'm in hopes you think it over
and perhaps be satisfied
with the simple sort of person
on the sentimental side
