The Thing I Like Best About Him Is His Girlfriend

«It's been in my head, but I’d never said
Anything to you before
And to simplify: well, I’ve been living a lie
But I can’t lie anymore
So I’m going out here on a limb
I don’t want to pretend
Because the thing I like best about him
Is his lovely girlfriend»
«I was fine until this all unfurled
Yes, I’m wild about you
But you’re asking me to change my world
And that’s not something I can do
I thought that this was all just in my head
Sure, it’s appreciated
But if he heard what you just said
He’d be completely devastated!»
«I wouldn’t intend
To steal my friend’s girlfriend
But well then, is it theft
When we both know
That I would treat you so
Much better if you left?»
«Why didn’t you say
That you felt this way?
This is all just too surreal!
Because right now, I’m
Not sure how I feel
Well yes it’s true
I might have thought about you
But it all seems quite unreal»
«I'm not making this up on a whim
Believe me I know it’s wrong
I went to all those boring things with him
Just in case you came along
I’ve tried so hard to find a girl like you
And all the time you were right here near me
I know you say he loves you too
But I love you better, hear me
So I’m going out here on a limb
I don’t want to pretend
Because the thing I like best about him
Is his lovely girlfriend»
