Wendy's Song (1974) © T. E. Gray

D

She said, You ought to be a lawyer, the way you drag things out of me...

I've told you things I thought I'd never tell; you've taken all my privacy

Let me go, don't smother me --you've got to see that I can't grow

When you tear apart my feelings, and analyze my soul

You know I'm thankful for what you've done, the things you've let me see

G

But the love I thought I had for you was really only gratitude

And now I know the place we've been I've got no business bein' in

D

When I'm feeling down, just plain down, you never seem to understand

You look just like a policeman, with a summons in your hand

Always sittin' 'round my apartment, you never know it's time to leave

But I'm tired of this see-saw, so I'm wishin' you God's Speed

Yes, I fear we're over... It's time to be just friends

For the love I thought I had for you was really only gratitude

And even though we once knew bliss, I'd rather not at all than this

You know I'm thankful for what you've done, the things you've let me see

G

But the love I thought I had for you was really only gratitude

And now I know the place we've been I've got no business bein' in
