Lyrics A Lover, Not a Friend - Thunder

A Lover, Not a Friend

I felt the cold today, winter’s coming on Clouds are steel grey and all the leaves are gone
But every day’s the same since you took away the sun
I’m out of cigarettes, I must’ve smoked them all last night
I should eat I know, but I’ve got no appetite
I wonder where you are
And if you feel my sorrow
'Cause you won’t ever know what a mess you left me in
I wish you could feel it for a day
'Cause you abandoned me As pain and misery descend
I know I’ve lost a lover, not a friend
Now I don’t once recall ever feeling quite so bad
You shattered all those dreams of the future that we had
I hate my stupidity
As much as what you’ve done to me, oh So don’t you kid yourself that you’re ever coming back
'cause even if you beg and pray
You won’t convince this man
'Cause there’s no feelings left to lend
I’ve lost a lover, not a friend
I hope your latest squeeze is a smarter guy than me I hope he keeps his faith and trust under lock and key
And just for old times' sake
I hope your heart he’ll break, oh
'Cause you won’t ever know what a mess you left me in
I wish you could feel it for a day
'Cause you abandoned me As pain and misery descend
I know I’ve lost a lover, not a friend
You won’t convince this man
'Cause there’s no feelings left to lend
I’ve lost a lover, not a friend
