He tells me over and over that he loves me so
 He gives me love that I never got from you
 He loves me too, his love is true
 Why can't he be you

 He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
 And I'm lucky to have such a guy; I hear it all the time
 And he does all the things that you would never do
 He loves me, too, his love is true
 Why can't he be you

 He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul
 And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know
 But his kisses leave me cold

 He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love
 And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of
 And he does all the things that you would never do
 He loves me too, his love is true
 Why can't he be you
