This is one of 3 leftovers from Tomorrow is Here Today (the last album). A humorous song about fear of commitment. I like the lyric, "she was the one but I had to let her go because I didn't want to make up my mind."
lyrics
She was the one
But I had to let her go 'cause I didn't want to make up my mind
It's a story that'll never be mine
And if you thought I never opened up my feelings
and showed my heart unto the world
And if I could read about it and figure out the answer
and reassure me of my dreams
She was the one
But I had to let her go 'cause I didn't want to make up my mind
It's a story that'll never be mine
And if I made you sorry that you ever knew me
then I'd turn and say goodbye
But if we learned our lesson then we could stick together
And we could make a brand new start
She was the one
But I had to let her go 'cause I didn't want to make up my mind
It's a story that'll never be mine
