You didn't have

To be so nice

I would have

Liked you anyway

If you had looked

Just once or twice

And gone upon

Your quiet way

Today I said the time

Was right for me

To follow you

I knew I'd find you

In a day or two

And it's true

You came upon

A quiet day

You simply seemed

To take your place

I knew that it

Would be that way

The minute that

I saw your face

And when we've had

A few more days

I wonder if I'll get to say

You didn't have

To be so nice

I would have

Liked you anyway

Today I said the time

Was right for me

To follow you

I knew I'd find you

In a day or two

And it's true

You didn't have

To be so nice

I would have

Liked you anyway

If you had looked

Just once or twice

And gone upon

Your quiet way
