He said, Hey man c'mon over here
Let me play somethin' new for your ears
Well I sat down and listened to him say
Love keeps gettin' in the way
And how many times will I fall in love
With the girl that wants my friend, y'see
Love is the hole in the middle of my heart
Like a well that has no end
And I said,
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed
There's a soul out there that yours wants to find, and set your spirit free
And I said, oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed
She said, Hey man c'mon let's go
Let me tell you 'bout somethin' that you don't know
well I paced the floor and listened to her say,
Love keeps gettin' in the way
And how many times will I fall in love
With the boy that wants my friend, y'see
Love is the pole that blocks the door
With the key the boy can lend
And I said,
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed
There's a soul out there that yours wants to find, and set your spirit free
And I said, oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed
Well I tried to find some reason why,
I know a love is better but I've been sinkin', I've been sinkin'
Well I've tried to find a corner in my mind, leave it all behind
I've been thinkin', I've been thinkin'
We can put it all together babe, we've got plenty of time
I remember sittin' 'neath the stars
Talkin' 'bout love in a broken-down car
Said what we gonna do, we've lost our way
Love keeps gettin' in the way
Well I replied to the question on his face
Said, Love's not a time or a convenient place
Got rocks in your shoes, you gotta fly
If it's love there is no question why
And he said,
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed
There's a soul out there that yours wants to find, and set your spirit free
And I say, oh yeah, I know what you mean
'Cause a friend and lover's a friend indeed, oh yeah
I've been sinkin', I've been sinkin'
I've been sinkin', I've been sinkin' baby...
