Her Obsession - Steve Key

    He's the one who wakes her up
    In the middle of the night
    She turns to him and finds that she's alone
    He's the calm and soothing voice
    At the end of the line
    Who never gets closer than the phone

    He's her obsession
    Her passionate hope
    His love is a rope
    It keeps her life tied
    She's hanging at loose ends

    He's the sensitive soul
    The one who understands
    The standard she holds up to other men
    There are some who try to win her
    They seem to try too hard
    She discards them all and waits for him again

    He's her obsession
    Her passionate hope
    His love is a rope
    It keeps her life tied
    She's hanging at loose ends

    In a perfect world
    There are women and men
    And a perfect love
    Builds in them
    But a perfect world
    Is all in her mind
    When will she see that
    This man is leaving her behind?

    He's the one she had before
    But will never have again
    Except on certain nights when he's lonely
    He is free to live his life
    And to take other loves
    Never to be haunted by "if only..."

    He's her obsession...
