Lyrics

When we walked across the shingle, did something happen, when you touched my hand? I don't understand You asked me if I was single but I couldn't speak because I was terrified; I just wanted to hide What I really wanted was to lie and tell you I was available You started writing but you gave me a number I couldn't call; I didn't want to lose everything And, of course, it was inviting but I should've just run full speed out of there and just disappeared; that much is clear And did I tell you that I was available? And I would love to say I am but I'm trying hard not to be that man Yes, I would love to say I can but I'm trying hard not to be that man You said: "Up on the mountain, the snowfall gets later and later every year but winter is almost here" I left you by the river side You really knew exactly what to say but I still had to walk away because, even here in Telemark, I'm not available And I would love to say I am but I'm trying hard not to be that man Yes, I would love to say I can I'm trying hard not to be that man
