His Friends Are More Than Fond Of Robin Tab

by Carly Simon


His Friends Are More Than Fond Of Robin - from No Secrets - 1972


His friends are more than fond of Robin

He doesn't need to compliment them
                          
And always as he leaves, he leaves them

Feeling proud just to know him


When Robin goes on holiday

There's no one livin' in our lane
                             
Oh yes, folks still live in our lane
                      
But they're not like Robin

             
Robin, I've never told you
                   
But I'll be yours until we're old
                              
Please learn to call me in your dreams
                                       
The way I'm lookin' at you is just as it seems


              



He's talked about before he gets there

Though he can never understand it
                         
And I would like to be his alone

But I'm shy and can't demand it


But when Robin gives his love to others

There's no one living in my heart
                         
Oh yes, I keep others in my heart

But they're not like Robin

             
Robin, I've never told you
                   
But I'll be yours until we're old
                              
Please learn to call me in your dreams
