I Suppose Songtext
von Loudon Wainwright III

I suppose that I could love you
Though my mind tells me no way
It says screw it, you′ve been through it
It's not worth the price you pay
Then it reminds me of the last time
Each gory detail
It′s a drag, it tells me bag it
No, my memory doesn't fail
And I suppose that I could love you
If my heart were still intact
It keeps ticking but not tricking me
Like it used to, that's a fact


I′ve been burned and I have learned
To let the muscle do its job
I let it beat, it′s no mean feat
No, it doesn't need to throb
I suppose that I could love you
If I wasn′t so afraid
I might go berserk if it did work
And I didn't feel betrayed
I′ve been writing off love for so long now
It's all I know to do
But if it′s real, this thing we feel
Well then yes, I could love you
