A Person Like You

You ain't the kind of friend
I'd like to take home to my mother.
She wouldn't understand
Someone I could love like a brother.
And me, I must admit
You are not like any other.
Yeah, I have never known a person like you.
When I come home at night,
You're always there waitin' for me.
Climb in, turn out the lights,
And tell me a bedtime story.
And me, I feel so right,
I know I don't have to worry.
It comes easy with a person like you.
My folks say they're doubting your intention,
You don't live according to convention.
That's all right, I can make it with a friend like you.
My folks say I've lost my inhibition,
We're not in the usual position.
That's all right, I can take it with a friend like you.
True, I don't understand
What comes as your motivation.
But when you take my hand,
We make a good combination.
And if the laughter's canned,
I won't complain to the station.
I can take it from a person like you.
You're not the kind of friend
I'd like to take home to my mother.
She wouldn't understand
Someone I could love like a brother.
And me, I must admit
You are not like any other.
Yeah, I have never known a person like you.
I have never known a person like you.
So true.
