Always the Friend
Always the friend but never the lover,
On the end of the phone, but not under the covers
Around me often beautiful women do hover,
But I’m always the friend and never the lover.
They say I’m a nice guy, who’s easy to like,
I listen intently and am always polite.
I’m witty and funny and show women a good time,
But to date me then hate me would be such a crime.
So, I’m …
Always the friend but never the lover,
On the end of the phone, but not under the covers
Around me often beautiful women do hover,
But I’m always the friend and never the lover.
They end up with guys who treat them all wrong
Then cry on my shoulder with the same dance and song
When I suggest that perhaps they should give me a try
They say, “And loose my best friend? Why then I would die.”
So, I’m …
Always the friend but never the lover,
On the end of the phone, but not under the covers
Around me often beautiful women do hover,
But I’m always the friend and never the lover.
Seems to me maybe I should stop being so nice,
Treat all of the women like a sexual device
But when I tried that once it wasn’t such a hit,
I just came across as some guy full of …
So, I’m …
Always the friend but never the lover,
On the end of the phone, but not under the covers
Around me often beautiful women do hover,
But I’m always the friend and never the lover.
