Chorus: Over and over Time and time again You can't be nobody's lover You can't be nobody's lover Till you're somebody's friend Repeat Chorus I love you To me you're a shining star First let's find out just who we are Bridge: First you got to look deep to see Take some time in my company Don't be afraid to explore This time we've got to be sure Repeat Chorus I told you before I'll tell you again You can't be nobody's lover You can't be nobody's lover Till you're somebody's friend What's a book before it's read? How can the cover say all that's to be said? Who am I, lion or the lamb? Baby, I want you to know all the folks I am Repeat Bridge Repeat Chorus
