If the night turned cold 
And the stars looked down 
And you hug yourself 
On the cold, cold ground 
You wake the morning 
In a stranger‘s coat 
No one would you see 

You ask yourself, ‘Who‘d watch for me?‘ 
My only friend, who could it be? 
It‘s hard to say it 
I hate to say it 
But it‘s probably me 

When your belly‘s empty 
And the hunger‘s so real 
And you‘re too proud to beg 
And too dumb to steal 
You search the city 
For your only friend 
No one would you see 
You ask yourself, ‘Who‘d watch for me?‘ 
A solitary voice to speak out 
and set me free 
I hate to say it 
I hate to say it 
But it‘s probably me 

You‘re not the easiest person 
I ever got to know 
And it‘s hard for us both to let our feelings show 
Some would say 
I should let you go your way 
You‘ll only make me cry 
But if there‘s one guy, just one guy 
Who‘d lay down his life for you and die 
It‘s hard to say it 
I hate to say it 
But it‘s probably me 

When the world‘s gone crazy, and it makes no sense 
And there‘s only one voice that comes to your defence 
And the jury‘s out 
And your eyes search the room 
One friendly face is all you need to see 
And if there‘s one guy, just one guy 
Who‘d lay down his life for you and die 

I hate to say it 
I hate to say it 
But it‘s probably me 

I hate to say it 
I hate to say 
But it‘s probably me 
I hate to say it 
I hate to say 
But it‘s probably me 
I hate to say it 
I hate to say 
But it‘s probably me
