Anyway
DeGraw Lyrics

I don't want to get too close
I'm not willing to fully open up

I don't want to get too close
I'm cautious with who I let in

You see this isn't where my head is
I'm not typically this way

If you knew me, I'm not like this
My current behavior is unusual for me

But I just found someone special
I've found someone important to me

And that's really something special
It's a significant moment for me

If you knew me
I'm not usually like this

Nice to meet you anyway
Thanks for trying to connect

I believe you're very fine
You seem like a wonderful person

Still I haven't got the time
I don't have the capacity for another relationship at the moment

'Cause I just found someone special
My new connection requires my attention

And the sky opened up
My perspective has changed

With the soil of the sun
My heart is lit up

Dreaming of my true love
I'm thinking about my new partner

I don't mean to be so strange
I'm aware that I'm acting differently

But my life just took a change
My life has shifted and feels different

So before this goes too far
I don't want to lead you on

Let me tell you what you are
You're an amazing person

You're amazing, I'm attracted
I admire you, but I'm not available

But I'm terribly distracted
My thoughts are preoccupied

And I'm trying to be verbal
I'm attempting to explain myself

And I'm back into this circle
I'm caught in a cyclical pattern

Nice to meet you anyway
Thank you for trying to connect

And even if you want me to stay here
I understand if you want me to stay

I'm telling you right now I should leave
But I need to go

'Fore I get to changing my mind, dear
Before I reconsider my decision

I hope you understand what I mean
I hope I've made myself clear

I hope you understand what I mean (nice to meet you anyway)
I don't want to give you false hope

I hope you understand what I mean
I need to focus on my new relationship
