Musical friends are keeping me happy
They know what I need
Now I can sleep on anyone's floor without
Feeling cold
Inside or outside me
The closer we get the easier life be -
Comes for each of us
We can sing songs and play at each other
Over wine
In bottles or in pipes
And we can pass
On endings till the end
We can laugh
Me and my musical friends
Nobody's quite sure just where they're going
They'll find out soon enough
When they get there some sunny morning or
Windy night
If they can just keep moving
And we can pass
On endings till the end
We can laugh
Me and my musical friends
Musical friends are keeping me happy
They know what to do
Musical friends have many things to
Offer you
And you can be one too
(Who ever heard of drinking wine from a pipe anyway?)
