I Learnt How To Pray

(album: Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti - 1985)

She's been good to me
And her aim is plain
With an open mind
And a tender way
As she looks through boxes of secondhand clothes
She's a first class person as her best friend knows
She's been good to me
Helped me not to lie
Listens to my words
And the truth she finds
As I fell in love with my very best friend
I didn't realise that our friendship would end
I learnt how to pray
Every night
To relieve the pain
Deep inside

I was serious with a furrowed brow
I just fell in love what do I do now?
As I fell in love with my very best friend
I didn't realise that our friendship would end

It didn't work for us the lesson I learnt
The fire was lit and I got burnt
And I fell in love with my very best friend
I didn't realise that our friendship would end
