John Prine
My Own Best Friend

I'm beginning to like you

But, you know that ain't right

'Cause you'll just twist and twist and twist

Till I'm all crooked inside



You'll take all you gave me

Like it never was there

And I think that I might, no, I know

Yes, I will help you there



'Cause, I've done it before and I'd do it again

'Cause it's the only time

That makes me feel like I'm

My own best friend



I'm a victim of friction, I got too close to see

Yeah, we sparked in the dark and God hung a light on me

The lamp gets real heavy, it hangs from my heart

And it comes and it goes till I can't tell the difference apart



But I've done it before and I'd do it again

'Cause it's the only time

That makes me feel like I'm

My own best friend



So many people say, it will never work out that way

You can't stand the heat

While you're watching your heart

Just melt away in the basement on a rainy day



There's motel in Shreveport

Don't ask me where, please

They check in, they check out

By the light of the color T.V.s



The maid calls you honey

She makes your bed slow

And she speaks, of the sheets that don't fit

But you know that she knows



I've done it before and I'd do it again

'Cause it's the only time

That makes me feel like I'm

My own best friend, my own best friend

My own best friend, my own best friend


Mirror lyrics:

My own best friend, my own best friend

My own best friend, my own best friend

That makes me feel like I'm

'Cause it's the only time

I've done it before and I'd do it again



But you know that she knows

And she speaks, of the sheets that don't fit

She makes your bed slow

The maid calls you honey



By the light of the color T.V.s

They check in, they check out

Don't ask me where, please

There's motel in Shreveport



Just melt away in the basement on a rainy day

While you're watching your heart

You can't stand the heat

So many people say, it will never work out that way



My own best friend

That makes me feel like I'm

'Cause it's the only time

But I've done it before and I'd do it again



And it comes and it goes till I can't tell the difference apart

The lamp gets real heavy, it hangs from my heart

Yeah, we sparked in the dark and God hung a light on me

I'm a victim of friction, I got too close to see



My own best friend

That makes me feel like I'm

'Cause it's the only time

'Cause, I've done it before and I'd do it again



Yes, I will help you there

And I think that I might, no, I know

Like it never was there

You'll take all you gave me



Till I'm all crooked inside

'Cause you'll just twist and twist and twist

But, you know that ain't right

I'm beginning to like you
