Music & lyrics: john popper      Come to me madam, come one and all   I'll be there to save you from your romancing fall   I'll be there to touch you with some words to a song   And I'll see what I can do to fix what is wrong   You're sharing my power you're sharing my pain   You tell me you love me and I will not complain   My advice seems to work, for you're soon on your way   And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay   But a kiss on the cheek is where it will end   Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend      I put on no pressure and know I'm on your mind   I love you forever and I'll always be kind   Loneliness knows me so I know what to say   And I see how it will be so I know when to play   Come share in my power, come share in my pain   Come tell me you love me and I will not complain   My advice seems to work for you're soon on your way   And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay   But a kiss on the cheek is where it will end   Because I'm never the lover and always the friend      I can remember a time that was enough   And the safety we had made it seem almost like being in love   Being in love   Oh, love      A bartending minstrel, I will answer your call   A carnival gypsy with his twelve-string crystal ball   I can't really touch you so my songs are all lies   The truth is simply pain and the tears in your eyes   But you can share in my power, you can share in my pain   You can tell me love me and I cannot complain   My advice seems to work and you're soon on your way   And you thank me so much and I will tell you it's okay   But a kiss on the cheek is where it must end   Because I'm never the lover and always the friend   Come share in my power, come share in my pain   You can tell me love me and I cannot complain   My advice seems to work for you're soon on your way   And you thank me so much and I tell you it's okay   But a kiss on the cheek is where it must end   Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend   Cause I'm never the lover and always the friend   Cause I'm never the lover and always the f
