I blew a kiss through your keyhole
Just to let you know I'm breathin'
Just to try and smack you in the heart,
If I was smart
I'd give up and go back home

[Chorus:]
I'm not tryin' to say I'm sorry
I'm trying to say I love you
I'm not tryin' to make excuses
Nor set myself above you
I'm not tryin' to rearrange it
I'm not sayin' I can change it
The only thing I'm tryin' to do is try

I was hidin' by the back porch
Just to try and catch you leavin'
Just to try and catch you unaware
I don't care
If that ain't fair, I ain't proud

[Chorus]

I leaned on your doorbell
Just to see if you would answer
Just to see if you would open up,
No such luck
I'll come back when you calm down

[Chorus 2x]
