I’d Rather Be Your Lover Songtext / Lyric

I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover



I don't know where I stand with you

I never ever make any plans with you

I don't know what I mean to you

The only thing I know is I dream of you



And all that I know

(All that I know)

Is I just don't understand

(Just don't understand)

Why my, happiness always lies

In the palm of your hand



But I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover






Sometimes I know what you're thinking next

But wouldn't it be better if I loved you less?

Sometimes I think that I made you up

But wouldn't it be better if I gave you up?



And all that I know

(All that I know)

Is I just don't understand

(Just don't understand)

Why my, happiness always lies

In the palm of your hand



But I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover

Are you surprised?



Tell me whatch ya want, tell me whatch ya need?

Tell me whatch ya want, tell me whatch ya need?

I, I betcha I, I give you whatch ya need

Take a walk within me, venture through the dark sea

Can't you see, I need you beside me?

Don't you see, I want you to want me?



And all that I know

(Tell me whatch ya want, tell me whatch ya need)

(All that I know)

Is I just don't understand

(Just don't understand)

Why my, happiness

(Tell me whatch ya want, tell me whatch ya need)

Always lies

(Always lies)

In the palm of your hand



Now, I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover



Now, I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover

Are you surprised?



I could be your sister, I could be your mother

We could be friends, I'd even be your brother

But I'd rather be your lover

That's right, I'd rather be your lover

Are you surprised? Are you?
