Keep An Eye lyrics

Artist  : The Supremes 
Song : Keep An Eye
 


(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

Keep an
eye
Keep an eye
Keep an eye
On your
close friend

Keep an eye
Keep an
eye
Keep an eye
On your close
friend

'Cause what you got that'll make
you lose
And then turn around and step in your
shoes
I say they'll turn around
And step in
your shoes

Like the day I stood there
numb
Watchin' my friend walk away
With my
love on her arm
No, what she left me
was
The memory of the moment when she
said
"I'm sorry for what I have to do
But
you see I love him just as much as
you"

Keep an eye
Keep an eye
On your
close friend

Keep an eye
Keep an
eye
You better watch out
For your close
friend

The devil's workshop is a busy
place
On top of evil there's an innocent
face
Oh, on top of evil he puts an innocent
face
She was just like a spider
Only twice
as smart

Kindness was the thread
She
used to weave our world apart
It used to be
three of us seen all over town
Now there's
only two
Someone's missing guess
who

Now I see how she schemed and
finally
Worked her way in between
She
planted seeds of mistrust here and
there
Causin' us to fight unaware
Her
comforting way when I would cry
Shadowed the
look of triumph in her eye
Just like a snake
on a limb of a tree
A friend is an enemy you
can see

'Cause what you got that'll make
you lose
And then turn around and step in your
shoes
They'll turn around
And step in your
shoes

So you better keep an eye on your
close friend
You better watch out for your
close friend
Don't trust nobody
Don't trust
nobody
Keep an eye on your close friend
You
better watch out for your close friend
