Never A Lover And Always The Friend
|
Music & Lyrics: John Popper
|
|
Come to me madam, come one and all
|
I'll be there to save you from your romancing fall
|
I'll be there to touch you with some words to a song
|
And I'll see what I can do to fix what is wrong
|
You're sharing my power you're sharing my pain
|
You tell me you love me and I will not complain
|
My advice seems to work, for you're soon on your way
|
And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay
|
But a kiss on the cheek is where it will end
|
Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
|
I put on no pressure and know I'm on your mind
|
I love you forever and I'll always be kind
|
Loneliness knows me so I know what to say
|
And I see how it will be so I know when to play
|
Come share in my power, come share in my pain
|
Come tell me you love me and I will not complain
|
My advice seems to work for you're soon on your way
|
And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay
|
But a kiss on the cheek is where it will end
|
Because I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
|
I can remember a time that was enough
|
And the safety we had made it seem almost like being in love
|
Being in love
|
Oh, love
|
|
A bartending minstrel, I will answer your call
|
A carnival gypsy with his twelve-string crystal ball
|
I can't really touch you so my songs are all lies
|
The truth is simply pain and the tears in your eyes
|
But you can share in my power, you can share in my pain
|
You can tell me love me and I cannot complain
|
My advice seems to work and you're soon on your way
|
And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay
|
But a kiss on the cheek is where it must end
|
Because I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
Come share in my power, come share in my pain
|
You can tell me love me and I cannot complain
|
My advice seems to work for you're soon on your way
|
And you thank me so much and I tell you it's okay
|
But a kiss on the cheek is where it must end
|
Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend
|
