You Are My Lover

(album: Suzi... And Other Four Letter Words - 1979)

You are my lover and my best friend
I think I've found the perfect blend
I don't want this to ever end
'Cause I don't know what I'd do then
I was drifting along from man to man
They slipped through my fingers like they're made of sand
I wouldn't put up with their demands
Everytime they did, I turned and ran

I was going through hell when I met you
You said you were going through the same thing too
I was so lonely everything looked blue
You've been just like a dream come true

You are my lover and my best friend
I think I've found the perfect blend
I don't want this to ever end
'Cause I don't know what I'd do then

We're like two lovers in the movies
Stranded on an island out of reach
That's always been my secret fantasy
Making love, right on the beach

I was going through hell when I met you
You said you were going through the same thing too
I was so lonely everything looked blue
You've been just like a dream come true

You are my lover and my best friend
I think I've found the perfect blend
I don't want this to ever end
'Cause I don't know what I'd do then
