The Lovin' Spoonful - Bes' Friends lyrics

Well I've heard about the quarrels, and how it always ends And how a couple loses edge and never make amends And how they weave a false cocoon and how the web extends But I've never heard of lovers that could be best friends Yes I've heard that love that's lasting comes far and in between And how that childhood sweetheart gets ornery and mean They always say the honeymoon is where the romance ends But I've never heard of lovers that can be best friends Well I've heard your dirty stories about your last affair And how you got in houses when you knew no one was there If you want to find a lover gonna love til the end Go on and find yourself a lover that can be your best friend
