She’s My Lover (She’s My Friend)

So I said today
Something's leading us astray
Different heartbeat, different tune
Born without a silver spoon

She would say to me
It's a puzzle, can't you see
And the pieces we should mend
She's my lover, she's my friend

That's why we have to lose
The traces and the clues so hard to hide
That's why I softly pray to keep away
Keep away from the spiders inside

So she said today
As I laughed my tears away
Changing moods will never blend
She's my lover, she's my friend

On and on and round and round we go
Uphill and down below
Until some faith will show
On and on, each one a different kind
Till love will turn us blind
And soothe our puzzled minds

That's why we have to lose
The traces and the clues so hard to hide
That's why I softly pray to keep away
She's my lover!

Counting heartbeats just once more
Hold her like I did before
Nothing's sacred in the end
But she's my lover
She's my lover, she's my friend
