Lyrics
"DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE THERE"
VERSE: When you fall down
I'll be there to pick you up.
When you get lost,
I'll help you to find your way.
I'll be there when you need a friend.
I'll be there when you think it's the end.
But there's one thing that I'll never do,
Even if you begged me to.
CHORUS: DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE THERE
WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE AGAIN.
I just couldn't do it.
I'd never live through it.
DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE THERE
WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE AGAIN.
I think you'll agree.
That's no place to be.
VERSE: When you're hurtin',
I'll be there to ease the pain.
When you're frightened,
I'm only a phone call away.
I'll be there when your dreams turn to dust.
I'll be there when you don't have a soul to trust.
But there's one thing that I'll never do,
Even if you begged me to.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE: You'll get the benefit of my wisdom,
And the smile that's on my face.
Out of six billion people on this troubled earth
I'm your best friend in the whole human race.
If your funds are low, just let me know,
And I'll do whatever I can.
Even though we'll never be together again,
I'm still your biggest fan. But ...
REPEAT CHORUS & FADE
