Chris Rea - Don’t Want Your Best Friend lyrics

She's got her independence in a hard fast way

She's got me chasing shadows with everything I try to say

Some say she's far too quick, some say she's slow to learn

But all I know is she gave me love that left afterburn

And it's fire feeds me I'm hungry still

So baby listen now, I'm at your will

But I'm not a flower on your windowsill

Don't want your best friend

Don't need a godsend

Don't want your new trends

I want you

She's got a silver sabre with a diamond shine

It's not an ego-trip just her frightened way

To keep you blind

Shadow dancing, nowhere fast

You got to meet me half way

Girl if it's gonna last

I remember that first night

I dream of it still

I want that feeling and I want that thrill

I've always loved you and I always will

Take me home
