Lyrics

You were so cute as you stood there out in the night
Snowflakes fell on your overcoat sparkling bright
We had some sushi and finished a short time ago
Strictly platonic, or was it? Not sure I know
And I didn’t know

‘Cause I did nothing
I did what was easy
Did what was safe and not at all queasy
Yes I did nothing, nothing at all
And what did I get aside from regret?
I got nothing

Dressed in chartreuse you were singing to Bruce with the crowd
A magical night at the Garden, a set list that wowed
As you were leaving for who knows how long again
If there was a moment to say anything it was then
But then became when...

because I did nothing
I did what was easy
Did what was safe and not at all queasy
Yes I did nothing, nothing at all
And what did I get aside from regret?
I got nothing

Being too cautious is something you should disallow
Sometimes you must seize the day and just do it now
Don’t be concerned about if you’ll succeed
Just take a damn risk and see where it leads
You’ll be doing much more than me

Because I did nothing
I did what was easy
Did what was safe and not at all queasy
Yes I did nothing, nothing at all
And what did I get aside from regret?
I got nothing
