If You Really Want To Be My Friend |
If you really want to be my friend |
Let me live it up like I used to do If you really want to understand me There’s some giving up we got to do |
I know ev’rybody wants to be your man |
I don’t want to tie you up, go ahead, you’re free |
And I never want to scar you with my brand |
We could live it up, just a you and me If you really want to understand a man |
Let him off the lead sometimes, set him free |
If you really, really want to be my friend |
Give me the look of love, not jealousy |
I know you think that life is a thriller |
You play the vamp, I play the killer |
Now baby, what’s the use of fighting? |
By the last reel we’ll be cryin' cryin', cryin |
If you really want to be my man |
Get your nails out of my back |
Stop using me You know I really, really want to be your friend |
But just a little faith is all we need |
I don’t want no dog eat dog world for you and me Get your nails out, stop bleeding me You know, people tell me you are a vulture |
Say you’re a sore in a cancer culture |
Ay, but you got a little charm around you |
I’ll be there when they finally hound you |
Hound you, hound you |
If you really want to be my friend |
And I really want to understand you baby |
If you really want to be my friend |
If you really want to understand me I really want to be your man |
I want to try to give you a helping hand |
I really want to be your friend |
I want to push you when you’re up And pull you when you’re down |
If you really want you to understand me |
I’ll tell you something, that love can’t thrive on jealousy |
I really want to understand you |
I really want to be your man |
'Cause understanding is something ev’rybody needs |
I really want to be your friend |
And I love you, love you, yes, I do |
