Dr. Dog – Keep A Friend lyrics
Even rich men ask for more,
Well I ain't poor
But I'm a beggar for your love
And enough it ain't enough
You can call me crazy
You can call me anything you like

Even gluttons got to eat,
Well I ain't weak
But I hunger for your love
And enough it ain't enough

Well I'd pawn my heart if I thought you'd break it
Sell my soul if I thought you'd take it
But every smile and conversation lets me know
That you're only in it for love

I intend to keep a friend in love
Please remember, I don't pretend in love

Even kings they ask for more,
Well I ain't sure
But I'm a pauper for your love
And enough it ain't enough
You can call me crazy
You can call me anything you like

Even rivers ask for rain,
Well I ain't sand
But I'm a desert for your love
And enough it ain't enough

Well I'd pawn my heart if I thought you'd break it
Sell my soul if I thought you'd take it
But every smile and conversation lets me know
That you're only in it for love

I intend to keep a friend in love
Please remember, I don't pretend in love

I intend to keep a friend in love
Please remember, I don't pretend in love
