I don't Want To Be the one,
Who picks you up when he puts you down.
I don't Want To Be that guy,
Who's always out there hanging around.

I Want To Be your lover.
I can't just be your friend.
I don't Want To Be the other man,
But I don't want this to end.

I don't Want To Be the one,
Who you tell all your troubles to.
I don't want to give advice,
That helps him get a hold on you.

I Want To Be your lover,
Not just your confidant.
I don't want to help some other guy,
Get everything I want.

So don't tell me.
Don't let it show.
Don't tell me.
Just let it go.
Don't tell me.
I don't want to know.

I don't Want To Be the one,
To tell you things that bring you down.
I don't want to see my love
Tossed out with the lost and found.

I Want To Be your lover.
I love you more than a friend.
I don't Want To Be the other man,
But I don't want this to end.

I don't know where this came from. Probably another love inteerest I wrote off as impractical and it became a song in fantasy since I couldn't do anything about it in reality. The few folks who have heard it (2006) like it.
