The Company You Keep
There was a time I thought we"d make it
And that love would see us through
I couldn"t believe it when it happened
But I"m not giving up on you
I know he says he needs your love
But he don"t really mean it
I"m the one that hungers for your love
I wish that you could see
The company you keep
Somebody ought to tell you what you really need
The company you keep
Bet give them up you don"t know where it leads
Lost inside a new romance
The feeling"s strong but it won"t last
The company you keep it can"t go on it"s all so wrong
So he pretends that you"re the only one
And he"ll make your dreams come true
But when he loves it"s only just for fun
And you"ll be sorry when he"s through
Don"t look over your shoulder
I"m catching up on you
Oh I hope that there will come a time
When you"ll know just what to do
The company you keep
Somebody ought to tell you what you really need
The company you keep
Bet give them up you don"t know where it leads
Lost inside a new romance
The feeling"s strong but it won"t last
The company you keep it can"t go on it"s all so wrong
Don"t you know that he"s leading you on
His promises are taking you high
When he leaves you with nothing at all
Who"s gonna stop you crying
Who"s gonna break your fall
Repeat chorus and fade
