You're the seventh son of the seventh sun
Maybe that's why you're such a strange and special one
You can't even seem to love yourself
And with a few exceptions
Not anybody else
You can lead a house to water
But you cannot make him drink
You can give a man your whole heart and soul
But you cannot make him think You could have been with me
Instead of a lover, lover
Tell him the date of departure Exactly the place and the time
He might really want to be there but He misses every time
Is he a man or a paper tiger?
When you need him will he run or stand beside
you?
You could have been with me
Instead of a lover, lover
You could have been with me
Instead of a lover, lover
You could have been with me
Instead of a lover, lover
You could have been with me
Instead of a lover, lover
