Friends

Well i've been up all night
Couldn't get to dream at all
Trying hard not to make a decision
You know it doesn't seem right
When your back's to the wall
To be accused of sensationalism
But the way things are going
Wouldn't be at all surprised
If a song i wrote won the next eurovision
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if i'll ever be loved again
The only thing i can rely on is change
It's a mixed-up world
These are mixed-up times
And the recipe of life's mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But i can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless i did a lot of explaining to you
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if i'll ever be loved again
The only thing i can rely on is change
You know i have often wondered
If what you're telling me's true
But i know that i can make it
If i have my friends to see me through
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if i'll ever be loved again
The only thing i can rely on is change
You know i have often wondered
If what you're telling me's true
But i know that i can make it
If i have my friends to see me through
It's a mixed-up world
These are mixed-up times
And the recipe of life's mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But i can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless i did a lot of explaining to you
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if i'll ever be loved again
The only thing i can rely on is change
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if i'll ever be loved again
The only thing i can rely on is change
