Bonnie Raitt i could have been your best old friend

Select language to translate this lyric

Fate is mighty cruel
Where true love is concerned
It seems you give out more
Than you ever have returned
Lately, I have tried
To make it on my own
Another night has passed
Looks like I'm bound to be alone
Bound to be alone
Now, solitude is fine
When you really need it
When your soul is dry
Sometimes, loneliness can feed it
When you need a lover
There's nothin' else to do
When you need love most
You know it turns it's back on you
Oh, I can't make it through without your company
I only wish I knew why you won't comfort me
Thought that I could count on you
To hear me cryin' out
I guess that, that's one comfort
I will learn to do without
I fall in love too easily
But never quite this fast
So, you are not the first
And Lord, you sure won't be the last
The thing about the situation
That makes me feel so sad
I could have been the best old friend
That you have ever had
I could have been the best old friend
That you have ever had
