Lose A Lover, Keep A Friend

(альбом: Game Changer II - 2019)

Yes, we've been here for years
Throughout every problem you had with every man
And all the women that came and went
You seen that time and time again
I kept you near
And you called me a friend
I love you 'til life
We never crossed that line
I just wonder if you ever wonder why

Can you imagine what would happen if we make love through the night?
And I promise I would do you right
But I'm only human and I can't stand to lose ya

I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend (And keep a friend)
'Cause I would hate to see you walk away
And it all go bad in the end
That's why I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend
I would hate to be another mistake
And it all go bad in the end
Lose a lover, keep a friend

I admit that I was jealous
Wishing I could have what he had
Thinking to myself, can I do you better?
That's a question we were too afraid to ask
We would probably fall in love
Couple years, several months
You can take my last name
We don't even need pre-nups
But even if I never get to have you like this
I still love you as a friend
If that's all that I can give

Can you imagine what would happen if we make love through the night?
And I promise I would do you right
But I'm only human and I can't stand to lose ya

I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend (And keep a friend)
'Cause I would hate to see you walk away
And it all go bad in the end
That's why I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend
I would hate to be another mistake
And it all go bad in the end
Lose a lover, keep a friend

I just wanna be honest
When it comes to you
'Cause you're way too important
Way too important for me to lose

I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend (And keep a friend)
'Cause I would hate to see you walk away
And it all go bad in the end
That's why I'd rather lose a lover
And keep a friend
I would hate to be another mistake
And it all go bad in the end
Lose a lover, keep a friend
