Only 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.
I know my hands are tied
I can't see nothing when you're inside
And I know the nights are long
You're falling asleep with your new dress on
Close your eyes and drift away
I'll be right here when you're awake
It's funny how no one's laughing
The champagne's popping and the baby's coughing
It's the same old story, the same old movie
But when you're with me it's a masterpiece
'Cause you are my only friend
You know nothing's free
You can pray all night, but they'll take their fee
And who knows how long it'll take?
Why stand in line with all the fakes?
Look around, look away
Tomorrow's just another day
It's funny how no one's laughing
The champagne's popping and the baby's coughing
It's the same old story, the same old movie
But when you're with me it's a masterpiece
'Cause you are my only friend
Yes, you are my only friend [2x]
