Friend, foe, light of my life
Blue blood and brutal hazel eyes
I've known you since your college days
Forty long years now
I know I ought to give you up
But God, I don't know how

Old money San Francisco
You were raised on diamond sands
But I built my wealth from nothing
A Boston self-made man
They all called me The Bachelor
For my solitary life
I never was an actor, so
I never took a wife

But you and I got something
It runs hot and it runs deep
Like a river or a fever
That takes hold when we're asleep

And do you think your staff has wondered
When they tidy up your home
Why you keep a note from Gabriel
On your night stand by the phone?
Oh, yes, they know

Your name is gold and forest green
To all the souls that fear you
All the world's a stage
And they're mere mortals far beneath you
You got the wicked games you play
To pass your idle time
You put the filth in 'filthy rich'
But I'm honored that you're mine

I know I ought to turn away
From a man who is so wrong
But I can feel my temples turning gray
You and I won't live that long
And do you worry 'bout your legacy
What your family might find?
Consider this a note from Gabriel
That you'll never leave behind

I've followed you for forty years
I'm following you still
I haven't let you go so far
And I know I never will
