(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)



When does a lover ever learn to say goodbye

When does a lover finally stop giving it one more try

If holding you for a night or two

Is all I'm ever gonna see of you

You'd better love me up and on the way back down

Give me somthing I need

Something I ain't found



Just like a bad seed in the wind

You keep blowing back again

When everybody's turned you out I'll take you in

You're a bad seed in the wind

And you've just got to have a friend

Come on and take my love and you can break my heart again

Darlin' come on and take my love and you can break my heart again



I see the memories in your eyes do they keep you company

And I hear your temporary sighs callin' out to me

Givin' in is all I do

I give you more and you take it too

If that's the way that it's got to be

Come and take what you need

And take it good from me



Just like a bad seed in the wind

You keep blowing back again

When everybody's turned you out I'll take you in

You're a bad seed in the wind

And you've just got to have a friend

Come on and take my love and you can break my heart again

Darlin' come on and take my love and you can break my heart again



Damn that ol' dream that you keep chasin'

So many things that I could have done

But I keep waiting waiting



Just like a bad seed in the wind

You keep blowing back again

When everybody's turned you out I'll take you in

You're a bad seed in the wind

And you've just got to have a friend

Come on and take my love and you can break my heart again

Darlin' come on and take my love and you can break my heart again
