I'm beginning to like you

But, you know

That ain't right

Cause you'll just

Twist and twist

And twist

Till I'm all crooked inside

Then you'll take all you gave me

Like it never was there

And I think that I might,

No! I know

Yes, I will help you there

Cause ...



Chorus

I've done it before

And I'd do it again

Cause it's the only time

That makes me feel like I'm

My own best friend





I'm a victim of friction

I just got too close to see

Yeah, we sparked in the dark

And God hung a lite on me

And the lamp gets real heavy

And it hangs from my heart

And it comes

And it goes

Till I can't tell

The difference apart

But ...





Repeat Chorus





So many people say

It'll never work out that way

You can't stand the heat

While you're watching your heart

Just melt away

In the basement

On a rainy day

La la la

La la la

La lala

Lalala la lalaaaaaaaaaa ...





There's motel in Shreveport

Don't ask me where, please

They check in

They check out

By the light

Of the color T.V.s

And the maid calls you honey

And she makes your bed slow

And she speaks

Of the sheets

That don't fit

But you know that she knows

That ...





Repeat Chorus
