lyrics

I can tell when you just want me around for companySomebody to talk to, doesn't matter whoWell that doesn't bother me butI get a chill when I'm trying to make a point and you turnAnd walk awayMaybe I got old, maybe the sound of my voice got droneBut don't give me your cold if you're going to walk awayI'm not your girlfriend and you're not my brotherUnless you plan on bringing me chicken soup For a couple of days, wellStop giving me your coldI love the way the lamp light glistens on the city streetWhen it rains at nightAnd I can appreciate the sound of the wind In the leaves above my headAnd I wouldn't mind your breath in my faceIf I knew you were my friendBut you could care less about what I have to say So your babbling has got to endBut if you were my loveI'd let you talk my ear offI'd even let you kiss meAnd if you were my friendI'd let you use my trumpetThat would make it o.k. for me to stay in my roomFor a day or soI could read a new book and get juice from the fridgeIn my slippers and robeHey buddyHave you been down to the river to sit under its skyThe river gives, the river lives under the same roofWhere it'll dieThe river babbles all day long And you can babble right alongBut I too have plenty to say and if you don't careWell I'll be on my way
