Off Limits from Perfect Gentleman by Randy Kaplan

"Off Limits" by Randy Kaplan

I loved your best friend and she loved me
just for a season or two.
But now that she is far away
I feel close to you.

She left us far behind
just for a season or two.
And out of sight is out of mind.
My heart beats for you.

But you're off limits to me.

I think I can read your mind
and in it's a treason or two.
Love is anything but blind.
Mine sees through you.

And when I look into your eyes
I see a season or two.
And when I see your face
I find it hard to face the truth

that you're off limits to me.

Yeah, I loved your best friend and she loved me
but now I'm in love with you.
I asked my best friend, "How could this be?"
He said the reason's 'cause you are off limits to me.
