_______________________________________________

I'm a fair-weather friend
I'm a colorless view
but I'm willin' to make a deal
if you think you can make some faith here inside
I'll drive off and marry you

Chorus:
I'm only alive with you
I can't get by and I won't get through
so put me in the river and let me say I do
I'm only alive with you

you're a sight for sore eyes
and a newborn cry
in a year where there are so few
if you throw me a line, I'll show you in time
I'm fallin' in love with you

[CHORUS]

though my heart has been torn
the loves I have worn
and I'm tempted by them ever still
I tremble inside when you walk in the room
you hold my affections and will

[CHORUS x 2]
