lyrics

I guess I got a little thing for you
But I don't mean a thing to you, it's true
I'd like to tell you what I'd like to do with you

Get you all up to speed
On why you should be with me
We'll see if we can be all that I hoped we'd be

I don't even know myself
What I'm doing here with you when you're with someone else
I guess I really should fill you in
On what I'm thinkin'... but here's the thing

There's a little thing I'd like to do
If you're down, it's up to you
If you do then tell me well we might just see this through

If you're feelin' what I say
Could ya send a little my way
When a little is all you got, a little means a lot, makes it OK

CHORUS

Got this whole thing planned with you
If only I meant a damn to you
But from where I stand, man I think I don't stand a chance with you

It would mean a lot to me
If you could send a little relief,
Reprieve, believe, but please don't leave, come see about me

CHORUS
