Lyrics
My Friend Tonight
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.
The only one with a party dress
That could fall in blue waves upon the floor
And step the country waltz that I'd seen her dance
On her front lawn of her house all alone
She lies still beside me with the t.v. on
I see her mummy look so sad
Turn down the volume and watch worried women weep
And touch the ring on her frozen hand
But she's my friend tonight
She's my friend tonight
Now I watch the flames leap up into the sky
From a fire that swallows all her clothes
She's stretched across a floor that's never been her home
I'll take her with me when i go
But she's my friend tonight
She's my friend tonight
We're young again
Oh you never missed me this way...
But she's my friend tonight
She's my friend tonight
