10. YOU CAN'T CLAIM by Björn Jakobsson

Good bye, my dear, it was really great to know you.
The sunset will soon be here again.
I'm sorry, but I haven't got anything to show you.
Just trying to leave it all as a friend.
I don't think you will really miss me.
You won't even notice that I'm gone.
I really need some caring lips to kiss me,
and I'm sure you'll soon find another one.

You can't claim that my heart wasn't on fire.
You can't claim that I never cared.
You can't claim that I was just a big liar.
You may claim that I was too scared.

You learn a lot from life and love and issues.
It's all like being back in school.
Sometimes the tears can't be stopped by tissues.
Sometimes everything is just cool.
Hold your head up high and feel the aura.
Who knows what tomorrow brings to us.
Grab your coat, your scarf and your fedora,
and be prepared for the next bus.

You can't claim that I didn't do my duties.
You may claim that I was a jerk.
You can't claim that I left you for some beauties.
All I know is that it just didn't work.
