Lyrics

Let go the doomsday machine,
And said good-bye to Mr. Clean.
Doctor said I'd be fine,
If I could get that woman off my mind.
I don't know how I lost her,
Or where the summer winds have tossed her.
I know there's nothing left to save,
I took more than I ever gave

I can't afford to lose a friend, oh, no.
I can't afford to lose a friend.

I could hear your conscience calling,
You picked me up when I was crawling.
I don't know what you did so well,
But you put me deep under your spell,
And though so much has gone unspoken,
I know that something there is broken,
Ain't too careful 'bout the words I send,
But I sure hope that this won't be the end.

And even if it is a lie,
Even if the dream must die,
Don't feel like you have let me down,
You stirred up something deep inside,
You called my bluff and blew my mind,
And now I got no place to hide,
But that wheel of fortune,
Will not turn me 'round.

I guess it's true that we won't be,
The lovers for eternity,
But that don't mean that I won't miss
The sexy way you move those hips.
I know that I can't stick around,
But I'll be there if your ship goes down.
And if you need a little sympathy,
You should know that you can always call on me.
