You say she's a very good friend
circumstances i should understand
but like recurring tide she comes on to you
and looks as though she's looking for a man
honey don't make yourself so available
my pride's in my pocket but i can be reasonable
still all in all i forsee my own fall
but i've climbed too far to drop
so stop
I know it's your ego keeps the smile on your face
because you know you got your options open
she's a beguiling snake and she'll keep what she takes
but when she leaves you i'll be the one coping
honey don't make yourself so available
my pride's in my pocket but i can be reasonable
still through and through i can see clean through you
i know you like to be the one on top
but stop
You will miss my conversation
when you're talking to yourself
you'll be thumbing for advice
through the pages of the novels on your shelf
honey don't you see our love together's the very best bet
put your focus on me and i'll forgive and forget
throw away your hidden ace you clever man
and take my hand
You needn't play the part of your image
this is not a one act play we're living
and as long as i'm here the situation is clear
it'll be 50/50 take and giving
honey don't you see a lifetime's not much to ask
take off your costume and remove your mask
if yes is what you will say we're gonna start from today
we're gonna take it to the very top
and never stop
