Smokey Robinson - A Silent Partner in a Three Way Love Affair lyrics

Three way love affair. Nothing I can say against the man you love.... Nothing I can say... Cause I don't blame you for feeling like you do Your man happens to be my best friend. The only hang up is I love you to So Im just a silent partner in a 3 way love affair Silent partner in a 3 way love affair. Ohhhh Vividly I can remember when he and I were boys cause that's when he gave me my very first clue When rapping about the woman who would share our future lives We both painted a picture that is you So Im just a silent partner in a 3 way love affair Silent partner in a 3 way love affair. Ohhhh It could have been worse I mean what if a stranger had found you first Since it wasn't me then im glad it was him Because to know you this way is better Than never to know you at all.... A thousand times I asked myself if Id take you if I could But I'm sworn to silence by the unspoken oat... If we 3 could talk about it might do me some good But I fear to speak might mean I lose you both... So Im just a silent partner in a 3 way love affair Silent partner in a 3 way love affair.
