It was always you and me and him
|
A whiskey sour, beer and gin
|
We were having fun
|
When the night was over
|
You'd go off together leaving me alone,
|
All alone
|
I stayed up every night, I had to find a way
|
I had to get to you
|
So I told you he was stepping outside
|
I said when you broke down and cried
|
Why don't you come to me
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
She said I love you like a brother
|
And that's how it's got to stay
|
Because I don't need no reminder
|
Of the love that went away
|
And the more I desire,
|
The less it does inspire
|
Because she says I remind her
|
Of the love she left behind
|
|
I found myself in the same old place
|
In the bar, another lonely night to spend
|
But the first thing I saw when I walked in
|
Was my almost lover, and my ex best friend
|
She was drinking all alone
|
And he was on the telephone
|
They wouldn't look at me
|
I went outside, I wanted to cry
|
It's a lonely life, ain't what it used to be
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|

Love You Like A Brother
