Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He comes for conversation
I comfort him sometimes
Comfort and consultation
He knows that's what he'll find
[Verse 2]
I bring him apples and cheeses
He brings me songs to play
He sees me when he pleases
I see him in cafés
[Chorus 1]
And I only say, "Hello"
And turn away before his lady knows
How much I want to see him
She removes him, like a ring to wash her hands
She only brings him out to show her friends
I want to free him
[Verse 3]
Secrets and sharing soda
That's how our time began
Love is a story told to a friend
It's second-hand
[Verse 4]
But I'll listen to his questions
I'll give my answers when they're found
He says she keeps him guessing

Joni Mitchell →But I know she keeps him down
[Chorus 2]
She speaks in sorry sentences
Miraculous repentances
I don't believe her
Tomorrow he will come to me
And he'll speak his sorrow endlessly and he'll ask me why
Why can't I leave her?
[Verse 1]
He comes for conversation
I comfort him sometimes
Comfort and consultation
He knows that's what he'll find
He knows that's what he'll find
