You're always playing with my mind
In your subtle way
I'm guessing all the time
You keep me in a daze
But when we're all alone
The flame burns higher
Fire, fire, fire
I know you can feel me
Once again you're telling me
That you need to feel free
But when you're feeling needy
You need me
So conveniently
All I ever wanted to be
Was someone you could lean on
Whenever you feel unsteady
I'm here when you need me to be
Ready to let it go but what I wanna know
Is there somewhere that you would rather be
I need a side to go on
'Cause I'm starting to feel unsteady
Do me this one courtesy
'Cause if we're through then i'm out the door
I'm turning around, yeah
There's only so much more I can take
Of this game you play
It's push and pull all day
If you keep pushing me baby
I'm gonna stay away
But then you pull me close
Whisper words to inspire
Fire, fire, fire
Oh baby
You never fail to let me know
That you need to be free
I know that you're happy
When you're with me
At least temporarily
All I ever wanted to be
Was someone you could lean on
Whenever you feel unsteady
I'm here when you need me to be
Ready to let it go but what I wanna know
Is there somewhere that you would rather be
I need to side to go on
'Cause I'm starting to feel unsteady
Do me this one courtesy
'Cause if we're through then i'm out the door
All in vain
All this time (Oh baby)
Wasted on someone I thought would be a friend of mine
More than a friend of mine
Til the end of time
All I ever wanted to be
Was someone you could lean on
Whenever you feel unsteady
I'm there when you need me to be
Ready to let it go but what I wanna know
Is there somewhere that you would rather be
I need a side to go on
'Cause I'm starting to feel unsteady
Do me this one courtesy
'Cause if we're through then i'm out the door
I'm turning around
You run away won't let me in
You play a game you cannot win (Yeah, yeah)
Why don't you talk to me
If you feel scared
Don't you know I care
When you needed a friend
All I ever wanted to be, was be a good friend
(To ya) I was there
Maybe a little more
For you to lean on
Maybe a lot more
Go on be free
I'll be here when you need me
