what a strange thing to say
as you pass me on your way out.
and all the things I had in mind for you and me.
say something new, something new.
what a strange thing to do
as you passed me
on your way out, on your way out.
and all the things I had in mind for you and me.
say something new, something new.
about something you do, something you do.

boy did you hear me say,
did you hear me say now.
love aint far, well I done mine, done mine, done mine
ooohhh you can't hurry love.

when I'm out, when I'm out, when I'm out,
when I'm out of love.
chicofriend, chicofriend, chicofriend
will be around.
he will ease, he will ease, he will ease
he will ease my mind.
fill my heart, fill my heart, fill my heart,
fill my heart with blood.
he will carry me, carry me, carry me, carry me.
he was a fortune teller, he was a fortune teller.
so when I'm out, when I'm out, when I'm out,
when I'm out of love.
chicofriend, chicofriend, chicofriend
will be around.
he will carry me, carry me, carry me, carry me.
cause he was a fortune teller, he was a fortune teller.
teller, teller, teller...

I called you, she answered.
got strangled on the way.
she gave you the phone, said it was for you.
didnt know, didnt know, didnt know,
didnt know you got yourself a new friend.
if you need a friend
you can call me again
I wont call you cause of your new friend
it's harder than I thought
being on my own
remember you said you needed me there
it's too late, it's too late, too late, too late
and you got yourself a new friend
if you need a friend
you can call me again
I wont call you cause of your new friend

we're listening to diana ross,
she sang her song about lovehangover, lovehangover.
swing n' sway she leads our way, leads our way
leads our way into a lovehangover, a lovehangover.
I didnt know what I feared
but I do know what I feel
we feel no pain with diana ross, she leads our way,
she leads our way, leads our way into a lovehangover,
a lovehangover, lovehangover.
I didnt know what I feared
but I do know what I feel
do know what I feel.

follow you down on this warm night
down to a certain color
altough I'll make sure we fall on safe ground
I wouldnt lay your faith in my hands
snare me well with all your charms
bring out some amber to warm me
only kiss me if the light is right
otherwise we'll wait a while

he was reaching for my treasure
as I held it high
standing on a stool twelwe feet high
had it made in foreign country
way out east
one on one we all must meet
bend them 'till they bleed
thats all I need, thats all I need
travelling on domestic train
wont lead me astray
that was just an offer I had to, had to take,
I had to take.
thats all, thats all I know.

seems fine though it aint no no no no
seems fine though it aint no no
I got to find me a way to flow
deep in the heart I'll seek and find it all.

she needed lovin in the morning
he kept asking her why
to be held and comfort
in her bravest time
instead he gave her a feeling
she should run n' hide
without knowing direction or cause
if you were my lovin kind
you wouldnt ask me why
but your not my lovin kind
you turn to her, you turn to me, you turn to her
she woke up tired of runnin
decided to stay all day
to seek comfort in herself
and when its time for her awakenin
she'll do it alone
without needing to say
direction or cause
if you were my lovin kind
you wouldnt ask me why
but your not my lovin kind
you turn to her, you turn to me, you turn to her.

there he goes again following idle hands
begging them to lead him astray
as far as they may.
you're lonely as can be
known as a friend of me
there he goes again
and then he's gone again
while I follow them around, follow them around
cause I never really tried
inside of me a fear will grow
holding hands with demands
you're lonely as can be
known as a friend of me
there he goes again
and then he's gone again

this one's for you, this one's for you
if you turn around I'll shake your arms and love you
cant be denied I had you in mind
though I know you'll be the last to know
the last to know
here comes the dark, here come the dark, here comes the dark
I know a dark, I know a dark.
here comes, here comes, here comes the dark
he knows a dark, he knows a dark.
