One In the Same

I know a guy who's more than crazy bout you
He thinks of you with every breath that he takes
He feels that absence makes the heart grow
And he's fond thinking of the love you'd make

I know another who fights with his temptation 
Says there's a bridge he shouldn't cross but he's not that strong 
So take him at his worst or leave him at his best
Now here's the secret I've been holding for too long

I know both guys, he and I, are one in the same
One calls you honey the other says your name
It's as if neither one knows any shame
Cause both guys are me, I'm to blame

Jimmy says he'd hold you from morning till night
James says he'd make love with you till morning light
While one is the other they both share in the pain
Of loving one who thinks it's all a game

I know both guys, he and I, are one in the same
One calls you honey the other says your name
It's as if neither one knows any shame
Cause both guys are me, I'm to blame

So should suspicion arise and you wonder
Who it is you love I hope you ponder
With both you will get a love that is fine
Cause our one plus one equals mine

So should one find your heart, and to it stake a claim
Remember both guys are the same
