Whenever
 by PirateBurn (pirate_burn@yahoo.com)

When you say, "I love you"
and I turn away-
Don't think I'm mad
When you say "I really like you"
Expect me to get pissed.
When you compliment me sincerely-
Know I'll deny it and 
Stick my tongue out
And when you hold my hand warmly
And sparks fly
And I snatch my hand back-
It's all because I want to do
The very same thing
And I'm just frustrated
'Cause you beat me to it.
