The A.M. finds me
Home alone awake in bed
Morning blinds me

Had that dream of you again
Fog is lifting
I realize that you're not here

And how you left me
Life disappeared


Life is rejection
I know you've had your share
But this one's special

I can't compete with her
And did she tell you
Only she could know your mind

And did she sell you
I gotta say it one time


She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had

She will know your troubles better than I can
But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man

She'll never be your man

She's got you thinking

Of a world where you might fit in
A whole lot better
Than the one you've been living in

And did she tell you
Only she could understand
And did she sell you

Only time will tell

She can be your lover

She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can

But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man


She can be your lover
She can be your friend

She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But one thing's for sure

She'll never be your man

She can be your lover

She can be your friend
A vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can

But one thing's for sure
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man

Never be your man
She'll never be your man
Never be your man

Never be
She'll never be your man
