Love You Like a Brother

Ooh, ooh
 Ooh, ooh
 Ooh, ooh
 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, oh-oh
 Of the love that went away
 And the more I desire
 The less it does inspire
 Because she says I remind her, oh-oh
 Of the love she left behind, mm
 Ooh, ooh
 Ooh, ooh
 Ooh, ooh
 I found myself in the same old place
 In the bar, another lonely night to spend (night to spend)
 But the first thing I saw when I walked in
 Was my almost lover, and my ex best friend, mm
 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, oh-oh
 Of the love that went away (oh babe)
 And the more I desire
 The less it does inspire
 Because she says I remind her, ooh
 Of the love she left behind
 She said I love you like a brother, yeah
 And that's how it's got to stay
 Because I don't need no reminder, ooh
 Of the love that went away (love that got away)
 And the more I desire
 Oh, the less it does inspire
 Because she says I remind her, oh-oh
 Oh, of the love she left behind (of the love that went away)
 Oh, I love, I love you, I love you, I love you, girl
 Oh, that's how it's got to stay
