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 'till the end



Come 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 true 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 truth



'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
