if i were just a little smarter
this interest hadn't gone bigger
seeing him shouldn't matter
and my heart shouldn't beat faster
if i were just a little smarter
i shouldn't have talked to him a little longer
my hopes shouldn't have gotten higher
thoughts of him shouldn't linger
if i were just a little smarter
i should have known myself better
i should have attached myself either
and i shouldn't have assumed greater
i shouldn't have fallen deeper
i shouldn't have hurt myself harder
if i were a little smarter.
only if i were a little smarter.
