Take my advice if you want a lover I'm not going to be your brother Are you afraid of what you might want to do Or is reality hard for you You used to get yourself together I've been treating you like bad weather Scared your friends will get on you You were too cautious when I warned you One of these days you're gonna take off my shoes You're gonna bring me the paper so I can read the news I'm gonna love you so good I'm gonna throw your mind The fort of my love will got to dry your tide Ain't nowhere for you to run Your hope and wishes killed all your fun Exhibition of what you don't know Might be the reason for you to throw upon Relax your mind and show your heart I've never been your brother even from the start I've always loved you, let me see your heart Take down that wall to play your part (C) 1967 by Daly City (Transcribed by Jon Dakss)
