You come to me for comfort
When your world comes crashing down
You say you need someone that you can trust -
And so I give you solace
And I listen to your woes
Seems you can't distinguish love from lust;
You cry upon my shoulder
Say I'm always there for you
No matter what is making you so blue -
I give you sweet attention,
Loving strokes and warm advice
I give you all I have - my love is true;
And now your ego's satisfied
You're back to your old self
You've finally gone and got your second wind -
And once again you're looking
For some girl to win your heart
And I'm again forgotten......... your best friend.
