He Loves Me Not
Your best friend spoke your name today
That is when I moved my eyes to the floor
Weve got unfinished business now
You tell me you love me, you say you dont remember
Go on love, go home to your son
go to your guitars, your job, your wife
I will be here alone, in my bedroom
Finding my island, dreaming of you
All day long I move through my memories
as I walk past your favorite bar, the places weve met
(the place we once made love)
And I come home alone, lonely, lonely
Then I look for you.
Weve got loose ideas about love, baby
Because you tell me you love me, I know you dont remember
(and Im not smiling anymore)
My friends, they come and they go away again
They tell me that its wrong. They tell me that its right.
My head is swimming. My heart is pounding.
And Im still in love with you tonight.
