I'D RATHER BE YOUR LOVER
(Madonna/Dave Hall/Isley Brothers/C. Jasper)

I could be your sister
I could be your mother
We could be friends
I'd even be your brother
But I - I'd rather be your lover
That's right,
I'd rather be your lover

I don't know where I stand with you,
I never ever make any plans with yo.u
I don't know what I mean to you,
The only thing I know is I dream of you.
And all that I know is
I don't understand
Whay my mmmm happiness
Always lies - in the palm of your hand

I could be your sister
I could be your mother
We could be friends
I'd even be your brother
But I - I'd rather be your lover
That's right,
I'd rather be your lover

Sometimes I know what you're thinking next
But wouldn't it be better if I loved you less?
Sometimes I think that I mede you up
But wouldn't it be better if I gave you up?
And all that I know is
I don't understand
Whay my mmmm happiness
Always lies - in the palm of your hand

I could be your sister
I could be your mother
We could be friends
I'd even be your brother
But I - I'd rather be your lover
That's right,
I'd rather be your lover

Are you surprised?

And all that I know is
I don't understand
Whay my mmmm happiness
Always lies - in the palm of your hand

I could be your sister
I could be your mother
We could be friends
I'd even be your brother
But I - I'd rather be your lover
That's right,
I'd rather be your lover

Are you surprised?
Are you
