When I began liking this older man then I learned that he was otherwise involved. He said "your lips say no, but your eyes say yes" in response to my silence when he asked if I wanted to see him seriously. I wanted to make it into a song

Lyrics
MY HEART SAYS YES
IT?S BEEN AWHILE I KNOW,
IT?S BEEN AWHILE
SINCE I LET MY SELF GO
MY HEART IS BEATING SO FAST
BUT IT?S LED ME WRONG IN THE PAST
MAYBE I?LL PUT UP MY USUAL FIGHT
OR MAYBE I?LL LET YOU STAY FOR THE NIGHT
BUT MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY NO
YOU LOOK CONFUSED AS YOU TURN TO GO
IT?S JUST THAT I FEAR WHENEVER YOU?RE NEAR
CAUSE MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY NO.
WHO KNOWS, MAYBE YOUR?RE THE ONE
WHO KNOWS MAYBE LOTS OF FUN
BUT I KNOW, THAT I FEEL THIS WAY
WHEN I FIND A MAN THAT CAN SWEEP ME AWAY
BUT MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY NO
IF I LOOK CONFUSED AS YOU TURN TO GO
I KNOW YOU WILL WIN IF I LET YOU IN
SO MY HEART SAYS YES BUT MY LIPS SAY NO.
WHO KNOWS MAYBE YOU?RE THE BEST,
WHO KNOWS, MAYBE LIKE THE REST
BUT I KNOW THAT I FEEL THIS WAY
WHEN I FIND A MAN THAT I?M WANTING TO STAY
BUT MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY
MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY
MY HEART SAYS YES AND MY LIPS SAY NOOOO?. WELL MAYBE.
