Like A 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.
Don't bother saying you're sorry
Why don't you come in?
Smoke all my cigarettes - again
Everytime I get no further
How long has it been?
Come on in now
Wipe your feeton my dreams
You take up my time
Like some cheap magazine
When I could have been
Learning something
Well, you know what I mean
I've done this before
And will do it again
C'mon and kill me baby
Whilst you smile like a friend
And I'll come running
Just to do it again
You are that last drink I never should have drunk
You are the body hidden in the trunk
You are the habit I can't seem to kick
You are my secrets on the front page every week
You are the car I never should have bought
You are the train I never should have caught
You are the but that makes me hide my face
You are the party that makes me feel my age
Like a car crash I can see but I just can't avoid
Like a plane I've been told I never should board
Like a film that's so bad but
I've just got to stay 'til the end
Let me tell you -
It's lucky for you that we're friends
