Time and time and time again
Got it from so many men
I’m so tired of being a friend
So why should I put up with this
Never my rules always his
So tired of being a friend

Time and time and time again
There’s been too many of them
So tired of being a friend
So why should I put up with this
Never my rules always his
So tired of being a friend

I just want to settle down
Find some peace, stay on the ground
Is it too much to ask of life?
Someone to hold, someone who cares
Is it more than my share?
To be someone’s wife

I just want to be close
To someone close

Is this the way that it will end?
The professional friend?
So why should I put up with this
Never my rules always his
So tired of being a friend

I just want to settle down
Find some peace, stay on the ground
Someone to hold, someone who cares
Someone to listen to my prayers
Is it more than my share
Is it too much to ask of life
To be someone’s wife?
