My friends avoid the issue
And talk of other things
But I know what they're thinking
And so do you
'Cause I have heard the story
I don't believe it's true
All the things they're saying
About you
If you had something on your mind
I know you'd say
'Cause you always said if we had problems
We would find a way
But do you know you haven't said much lately
And you look a little pale
Is there something on your mind
Or are you just unwell?
My friends avoid the issue
And talk of other things
But I know what they're thinking
And so do you
'Cause I have heard the story
I don't believe it's true
All the things they're saying
About you
It's nice in times of trouble
To have a friend around
But I need some time alone with you
I'm sure he wouldn't mind
So let's sit by the fire
Just you and me alone
And you can cook a special meal
And I'll go buy some wine
My friends avoid the issue
And talk of other things
But I know what they're thinking
And so do you
'Cause I have heard the story
I don't believe it's true
All the things they're saying
About you
I'm beginning to get the picture
It's all becoming clear
Why'd you have to do it
Did you have to make it here?
You can't mean what you're saying
Tell me it's not true
It wouldn't be so hard
If I didn't love you
My friends avoid the issue
And talk of other things
But I know what they're thinking
And so do you
'Cause I have heard the story
I don't believe it's true
All the things they're saying
About you
All the things they're saying
About you
