Lyrics Not Like That - Wilkes

Not Like That

Just off 65
First dirt road on the right
I was 109
She was 105
I was just 14
Never thought I’d be
Lost for words for the girl
Who use to push me in the creek
But I got butterflies
On that Honda Rebel bike
When she said I’m gonna have to hold you tight
Then words came fallin' out
And I can’t even tell you
How long I must’ve rambled on
Things like «maybe,» «more than friends,»
And «baby you don’t pretend you don’t feel it too
If there’s a chance you do.»
Before I threw my whole heart in
She cut me off real fast and said
«I love you darlin'
Just not like that»
A decade had passed
And she still made me laugh
The feelin' hadn’t left
And I knew I’d regret
If I kept it inside
And kept livin' a lie
I had to try one more time
Cuz she might’ve changed her mind
Then words came fallin' out
And I can’t even tell you
How long I must’ve rambled on
Things like «maybe,» «more than friends,»
And «baby you don’t pretend you don’t feel it too
If there’s a chance you do.»
Before I threw my whole heart in
She cut me off real fast and said
«I love you darlin'
Just not like that»
On my weddin' day
She said she had said sumthin' to say
She knew it had to be too late
But had to say it anyway
Then words came fallin' out
And I can’t even tell you
How long she must’ve rambled on
Things like «maybe,» «more than friends,»
And «please boy don’t pretend you don’t feel it too
If there’s any chance that you still do»
Before she threw her whole heart in
I cut her off real fast and said
«I'll always love you darlin'
Just not like that»
