Believes in love but never lets it show
Holds back words that could bring so much more but
She believes there is love in sight
But still can't make up her mind
Over the hills she went
Across the sea to sand
To search for what could mean so much more
So elusive that tainted lover

[Chorus]:
And what you want take your chances
And he'll be standing there as a friend
(Repeat)

So you never got all the cards
You take a look and you see you're holding everyone
Many sides to love in sight
But you still can't make up your mind
Over the hills she went
Across the sea to sand
To search for what could mean so much more
So elusive that tainted lover

[Chorus]

Seems so easy to get all caught up in
What should be so innocent
You've been hurt and we know it's tough friend
With what you want take your chances
He'll be still standing there as a friend
