A Song For a Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is
But like any song for a friend
Like any song for a friend
Each meaning is his
He'll hear it when
His last chance has gone
On pirate waves
And X-stations
This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is
And like any song for a friend
Like any song for a friend
Each meaning is his
I knew him then
A carefree spiv
Now someone who
Forgot to live
So here it is
Here it is
A song for a friend
I know how you feel
I know how you feel
I know how you feel
This is a song for a friend
Who'll hear it when
The cops come round
His open heart
His trousers down
So here it is
So here it is
A song for friend
This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is
