What's the matter with the way we look?
   Surely it's not the end
   I've only mean to make my motions clear
   You worry too much if it's understood
   Should we be seen as friends?
   Seems like a real good beginning right here
  
   'Cause when your heart is weak
   I'm gonna pick the lock on it
   My fingertips won't fail me
   No matter what you do
  
   The love you cannot see yet
   Is about to witness a dawning
   And you can twist and turn
   But you won't get loose
  
   Better forget getting rid of me
   I don't see how you can
   You put me off and I will hunt you
   down...again
   I'm mighty patient when I have to be
   You have given me that
   Still I look forward to the day you let me in
  
   (Repeat Chorus)
  
   I'm gonna prove myself worthy
   No more just hanging on
   Without a prayer of a chance
   I'm gonna come without warning
   When your defenses are down and you're in
   a desperate need
   Oh I bet you then, you'll welcome me...
   Your ol' companion
  
   (Repeat Chorus)
