i don't want to be your lover

i don't want to be your lover

last night i heard you creeping

i was almost sleeping

when i heard you come home

you knew i loved you madly

and i would gladly

do anything for you

you climbed the stairs to heaven

but you may never climb those steps again

you thought you'd be forgiven

but i was driven to make you understand

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your head

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your bed

tell me how you could do it

why put me through it

when you said you'd be true

you said that it was nothing

but it was something

and sometimes that's enough

so climb the stairs to heaven

but you may never climb those steps again

you thought you'd be forgiven

but i was driven to make you understand

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your head

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your bed

you climbed the stairs to heaven

but you may never climb those steps again

you thought you'd be forgiven

but i was driven to make you understand

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your head

i don't want to be your lover

when there's another lover in your bed
