Lyrics
Friends
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.
What do I get for always being there
You made cheap the hours I put in
When you needed me
When no one else seemed to care
And it's gone now
You could've been so many better things
Take a look at yourself or what's left of it
And if I needed you would you pretend to even care
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
And you're gone to go be someone else
To find it all out
To do it yourself
And you're gone, and you're gone and I have nothing to show
And I've lost a friend I used to know
Tell me exactly what I want to hear
Tell me it's over and done with
And we'll sit back and laugh
To put it all in the past
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
And you're gone to go be someone else
To find it all out
To do it yourself
And you're gone, and you're gone and I have nothing to show
And I've lost a friend I used to know
And I want him back
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
I've lost a friend I've had
I've lost a friend I used to know
And I want him back
