Analysis of when you like someone
Patty Ammons 1969 (Quincy, illinois)
when you find him
You like him
You try so hard
To spend time with him
You see him
You want to be with him
You dream of being with him
Do things with him
Now your doing without him
You think we're good to together
Come to find out you are not
