I'll be the knife on your plate
You don't need me
But I can make it easier
I want you
Cut off a piece we can chew
You ain't got to lean on me
And I wont lean on you
And when we touch
We can really touch each other
Instead of fumbling round for
Something that's familiar
That we will not find one single night
And we were marred by our ex lovers
Oh, its true
And I thought of one simple thing
We could learn to do
I wont look for him in you
And you wont look for her in me
Its like a promise
Just to be
You'll be my special friend
And Ill be the girl who says
I swear to you, oh, its safe to love again
Well I suppose we could fall
For each other in the end
But we wont
And even if we do
Remember this, remember this, remember it
You ain't got to lean on me
And I wont lean on you
