Lover and Friend Lyrics - Babyface

1 (Anthony Best,Babyface,Jason Edmonds)

2 VERSE I

3 Everyday my thoughts of you

4 Get more and more intense

5 I get closer to the truth

6 I'm that much more convinced

7 That you and I were meant to be

8 No what or ifs involved

9 As long as you got love for me

10 Our problems will be solved

11 B-Section

12 So do you love him? no

13 Do you think of me? yea,yea yea

14 You don't want him? no

15 Cause you'd rather be with me

16 After all the shit he put your through

17 Why wouldn't you want to leave

18 Girl,I got mad love for you

19 Why can't you be with me

20 CHORUS

21 I'll be your lover

22 I'll be your friend

23 I'll be your one true confident

24 I'll be the smile on your face

25 When we make love and consummate

26 I'll be the one good that won't let you down

27 I am not afraid

28 Afraid to love, afraid to trust

29 Or just communicate

30 I'll be your partner

31 I'll be your man

32 I'll be the kind that understands

33 That you got wants

34 And you got needs

35 And I got s'ponsabilities

36 I'll be the one good lover that's down for you

37 I am not afraid

38 Afraid to share, afraid to give or just communicate

39 VERSE II

40 Everyday he lies to you

41 'Bout things that he won't say

42 From simple things like denying you

43 From asking 'bout his day

44 It brothersme to think that he

45 Be playing you that way

46 You deserve much more, this I'm sure

47 So send him on his way

48 B-Section

49 Cause you don't love him? no

50 You always think of me? yea,yea,yea

51 You don't want him? no

52 Cause you'd rather be with me

53 After all the shit he put you through

54 It's time for you to leave

55 Girl, I've got mad love for you

56 You're supposed to be with me

57 CHORUS

58 Ad lib

59 CHORUS

60 end
