Lyrics
My 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.
My friend says that
The end holds nothing more
He don't hide his shame
Says its all the same
Like a man without a name
Old days asleep in
The shade by the Brandywine
See a dog get paid
See a boy behave
Every bone deserves a grave
But I heard the Good Lord's warning
like he might not forget by the morning
With no more terrifying thoughts of dying
Ooh oooooh oooh
My Lord, I'm climbing aboard
And I'm going home
No time to lose, no time to pack
Take a step and take it back
But I heard the Good Lord's warning
Like he might not forget by the morning
With no more terrifying thoughts of dying
Ooh ooooh oooh
Keep on with the living
You'll soon enough be dead
You got the whole world
Spinning in your head
And you don't want to give it up
(Don't give it up, don't give it up)
Cause no one should be sorry
We're just another day
You can say you'll be back
But you won't ever go away
(Won't go away, won't go away)
Cause love that never leaves is never ever welcome back
And i'm running out of skin thick enough to hide in (won't go away, won't go away)
Now hand in hand we're back in time we're chasing the train
Looking back looking back to wave goodbye
We're headed for the same disaster (don't give it up, don't give it up)
