It's just no good

(Fall in love with him)

You know that you should

(Fall in love)

I wish that you would

(Fall in love with him)

If only you could

(Fall in love with him)



More than my friend he has been my brother

He said to me he's dreamed, you'd be his wife

When I think of you, it's as just another lover

It's a simple choice of how you see your life



A singer's just another traveling salesman

Another night, another town to sell my wares

And the times that you'd be riding the excitement

Won't make up for times when no one would be there



He's an open book, why don't you read him?

He's already hooked, why don't you lead him?

Take a look, you just might need him someday in some way

(Some way)



And I'm the medicine man, I've started to mumble

A tight-rope walker, I've started to stumble

Humpty Dumpty's already tumbled down, haven't you found?



It's just no good

(Fall in love with him)

You know that you should

(Fall in love)

I wish that you would

(Fall in love with him)

If only you could

(Fall in love with him)



You know I've never thought I'd ever hear me saying this

Turning down a chance for touching something fine

But I'd rather have you happy and completely his

Then have you waiting for me when I find the time



He's an open book, why don't you read him?

He's already hooked, why don't you lead him?

Take a look, you just might need him someday in some way

(Some way)



And I'm the medicine man, I've started to mumble

A tight-rope walker, I've started to stumble

Humpty Dumpty's already tumbled down, haven't you found?



It's just no good

(Fall in love with him)

You know that you should

(Fall in love)

I wish that you would

(Fall in love with him)

If only you could

(Fall in love with him)



(Fall in love with him)

You know that you could

(Fall in love with him)

I wish that you would

(Fall in love with him)

If only you could



(Fall in love with him)

It does no good

(Fall in love with him)

You know that you should

(Fall in love with him)
