A Martyr For My Love For You She was sixteen and six feet tall In a crowd of teenagers comin out of the zoo She stumbled started to slip and fall Teeter-tottered on the top of patent leather shoes I happened to catch her and said, maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you Maybe for you, now But not as shaky as I must have seemed Talkin junk through her giggle, little teenage dream And on the phone I could not compete My dumb-love fake competence was getting weak For a sec I thought I sounded sweet But sure nough in a gruff, faint voice I heard myself speak [Chorus:] I could stay a while But sooner or later Ill break your smile And I can tell a joke But one of these days Im bound to choke And we could share a kiss But I feel like I cant go through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing for me to do Is to leave you alone Leave you alone, now Im beginning to like you So you probably wont get what Im going to do Im walkin away from you It probably dont make much sense to you But Im trying to save you From all of the things that Ill probably say or do Ill probably do [Chorus:] I could stay a while But sooner or later Ill break your smile And I can tell a joke But one of these days Im bound to choke And we might share a kiss But I feel like a cant go through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing for me to do Is to leave you alone Leave you alone, now Youll probably call me a fool And say Im doin exactly what a coward would do And Im beginning to like you What a shame its a lame way to live But what can I do? I hope you appreciate what I do Im a martyr for my love for you A martyr for my love for you, now A martyr for my love for you A martyr for my love for you
