Guest of Honor

You were on my mind right from the very start
Long before your memory weighed heavy on my heart
You took a long, long ride, you were fresh from school
New to the city, and the city breathed new life into you

Did you believe what you said about love?
Left me landlocked, out of touch
Streets are crowded with happy fools
If you ever come and find me, baby, you'd be right beside me, too

It seemed strange at first, but you got used to it
To find yourself the guest of honor any place you sit
I did what I could, you gave what you give
I cannot believe we have so much life left to live

Did you believe what you said about love?
Tell me again what's best for us
Streets are crowded with happy fools
If you ever come and find me, baby, you'd be right beside me, too

I feel like a diamond ring, I feel like a million bucks
I feel like nothing that you loved, and everything you touched
Was it meant to last? I know better than to ask
You wanted a friend, you found a friend, you had a friend in me

Did you believe what's said about love?
Always too much, never enough
Streets are crowded with happy fools
If you want to come and find me, baby, you'd be right beside me, too
