Judging by the distance, that's written in your eyes |
|
This is that defining moment, that people realise |
|
It's not communication, it's not that we don't try |
|
We don't want the same thing, the facts are hard to fight |
|
But if this is how it's going to end |
|
And if the rules you want to life by won't bend |
|
Then when you finally find the life you expect |
|
you'll still need a friend |
|
Comprimised solution, still could save the day |
|
But when I move toward the middle, you just turn away |
|
I understand the reasons, but that don't stop the pain |
|
Your path was there before me, but from it you won't stray |
|
'Cause I know that you'll be better off alone |
|
And our love was never written in stone |
|
But when you're out there in the world on your own |
|
you'll still need a friend |
|
you'll still need a friend |
|
We've reached the end, I can't deny it |
|
I know the honeymoon is over now |
|
But no matter where you go |
|
I'm on your side |
|
So if this is how it's going to end |
|
And if the rules you want to life by won't bend |
|
Wehn you finally find the life you expect |
|
You're still gonna need a friend |
|
oh Lord, you're still gonna need a friend |
|
Yes, I understand the reasons baby |
|
Lord knows I do |
|
When you're out there in the world on your own |
|
You'll still need a friend |
|
Gonna need somebody baby, mmm |
|
You'll still need a friend |
