The phone rang in my dream then it's real
you say that he's hurt you, and do I know how you feel
could I come over for a while
you'll cry on my shoulder and I'll make you smile
I've wanted to hold you a thousand times
but not like this, not with him on your mind
no not like this, not with him on your mind
You answer the door, your face wet with tears
you run into my arms but it's all too clear
your mind's far away, your body's so near
I've wanted to hold you a thousand times
but not like this, not with him on your mind
no not like this, not with him on your mind
Now you're back together, I tell you I'm glad
a night in your arms is more than I deserved to have
I've loved you too long, too long and too bad
I've wanted to lie here beside you
and know what love means
but not like this, not with him in your dreams
no not like this, not with him in your dreams
