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.
