Lyrics of Love you like a brother

It was always you and me and him
A whiskey sour, beer and gin
We were having fun when the night was over
You'd go off together leaving me alone
All alone

I stayed up every night, i had to find a way
I had to get to you
So i told you, he was stepping outside
I said, when you broke down and cried
Why don't you come to me?

She said, i love you like a brother
And that's how it's got to stay
Because i don't need no reminder
Of the love that went away

And the more i desire
The less it does inspire
Because she says, i remind her
Of the love she left behind

I found myself in the same old place
In the bar, another lonely night to spend
But the first thing i saw when i walked in
Was my almost lover
And my ex best friend

She was drinking all alone
And he was on the telephone
They wouldn't look at me
I went outside, i wanted to cry
It's a lonely life, ain't what it used to be

She said, i love you like a brother
And that's how it's got to stay
Because i don't need no reminder
Of the love that went away

And the more i desire
The less it does inspire
Because she says, i remind her
Of the love she left behind

She said, i love you like a brother
And that's how it's got to stay
Because i don't need no reminder
Of the love that went away

And the more i desire
The less it does inspire
Because she says, i remind her
Of the love she left behind
