Be Your 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.
As fast as you can speak
It keeps going over your head
Get off of your stupid phone
And come stand by me
He's a buddhist, she's a nun
He is filthy, she is fun
He reacts very slow
She wears black from head to toe
We all are different
We mustn't speculate
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
Tell me what's going on in your town
I'd like to, like to, like to, like to know what-know what's going on
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
A spell that is holding you and yourself down
Let's open, open, open up our hearts to what's going on
(x2)
We can be together, together
We can be together, together
Just 'cause you're not me
You're tossing me aside
It's very easy to do
What if it happened to you?
He has no roof above
And she does things out of love
She likes vodka, he likes rum
She can't afford an education
There's nothing wrong with being shy
Straight, gay, lesbian, even bi
He likes nature and meditation
She wears stylish high fashion
Yes we are different
We mustn't speculate
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
Oh mister come and tell me all about your dream
I'd like to, like to, like to, like to know what-know what's going on
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
Oh, all of the many ways to be
Let's open, open, open up our hearts to what's going on
(x2)
We can be together, together
We can be together, together
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
Tell me what's going on in your town
I'd like to, like to, like to, like to know what-know what's going on
I wanna be, wanna be your friend
Your friend, your friend
A spell that is holding you and yourself down
Let's open, open, open up our hearts to what's going on
