Lyrics:

Oh, I would not be your enemy
There'd be no need to pretend
If you will only love me
I will always be your friend
I will always be your friend
Remember how it used to be
The writing on the wall
The nights I used to wait
Outside of your back door
Remember how we used to nail old movie
To the floor
It could all be just the way it was before
The night is long
My love is strong
Could you so soon forget
Pretend we never met
Oh, I would not be your enemy
There'd be no need to pretend
If you will only love me
I will always be your friend
I will always be your friend
Creatures in the alleyway
And panties down the hall
Your daddy's in the boozer
Getting stoned
Do you remember how it used to be
When you're sitting home alone
With all your souvenirs
Your silent telephone
The night is long
My love is strong
Could you so soon forget
Pretend we never met
Oh, I would not be your enemy
There'd be no need to pretend
If you will only love me
I will always be your friend
I will always be your friend
So why don't you turn on the light
And open up your door
And we'll pretend it's just
The way it was before
You won't be fooled again
You won't be lonely anymore
And it's the only way
You'll ever know for sure
For the night is long
My love is strong
Could you so soon forget
Pretend we never met
Oh, I would not be your enemy
There'd be no need to pretend
If you will only love me
I will always be your friend
I will always be your friend
