She asked me if I thought that we would ever fall in love
I said, I think we may already have
Then we had a weekend
Well for me that was enough
I said, It's funny how it works
She didn't laugh
She said, I'm the best catch you're ever gonna find
If I were a man I'd be knocking down my door
I know you can love me
Just open up your mind
Yes, I know that you can love me so much more
I didn't buy it
I didn't buy it
Although I wanted to and I do still
But I didn't buy it
No, I didn't buy it
But when she's out of reach maybe I will
I said, You are a great catch but the sea is filled with fish
And I need to catch as many as I can
But there's no need to give me a final bon voyage kiss
'Cause I can cast my line while standing on your dry land
I said, I want to know you for a long, long time
I said, I want you in my life Until the end
I said, Being free like me is not some kind of crime
And I'll love you more now that you're my friend
But she didn't buy it
No, she didn't buy it
Although she wanted to and she does still
She didn't buy it
No, she didn't buy it
But when I'm out of touch maybe she will
I was in this clothing store going through the racks
And after just a few minutes
I came across this tiny, rust-colored vintage leather jacket
And I had a vision in my mind of her in it
But it was eighty-five degrees outside
And I knew her in the winter time
And it was eighty dollars that I didn't have
So I didn't buy it
No, I didn't buy it
Although I wanted to and I do still
But I didn't buy it
No, I didn't buy it
But if it's still there when I go back maybe I will
If she's still here when I get back maybe I will
Remember how it was and could be still
