My Best Friend's Wife
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I took to her, she took to me
And now we're meeting secretly
From four to five
My dreams all come alive
Would she ever leave me
I live from day to day
And if it ends
I lose two friends
I can't win either way
(chorus)
My best friend's wife
Is the love of my life
I just don't know
What to do about it
My best friend's wife
Is the love of my life
I just don't know
What to do about it
We get together socially
And she's with him
She's not with me
I try to hide
The way i feel inside
Going through the changes
So no one can tell
They say it's heaven
Being in love
I'd hate to be in hell
(chorus)
Would she ever leave me
I live from day to day
And if it ends
I lose two friends
I can't win either way
(chorus) 2x to fade
