She walked into the door and walked into my life.
|
I never asked her for anything,
|
but she gave me her whole life.
|
Greeting cards are a dollar
|
and laughter seems to be free.
|
The yuppie that had no money,
|
well she didn't bother me.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Tell me why you want to love me.
|
Tell me why you want to help.
|
Because you just told me all about me
|
and expect me to get there myself.
|
|
Never knew why I did it.
|
Always made me sick in the end.
|
But I'll bet you why I did it
|
had something to do with you my friend.
|
Well you told me much about being strong,
|
made me feel just like my feet belonged.
|
I told myself I'd be replaced by your lovely arms,
|
and I'd never trace back to those old charms.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Tell me why you want to love me.
|
Tell me why you want to help.
|
Because you just told me all about me
|
and expect me to get there myself.
