Maybe I should make you stay away
So you can really concentrate on where you are today when you phone,
I sit and think alone
And wonder if your life with her is really as you say
Then again, you're still a friend
I'll be loyal to you 'til the [bad word] to me with wounds you want to heal
I'll listen and I'll try to understand the way you feel
Never fear that I'll be gone from here
I'll always be around for you to talk to me, my dear
We can try to justify reasons for and reasons why
Some are [bad word] and some are only lies
With fingers crossed you close your eyes
And hope that things will turn out fine
There's not a lot that I can do
If you're too weak to face the [bad word] 'Cause if the things you tell me are
The way you really claim they are
Then I can only pity you for being such a fool
