I found a friend Who says he hasn't any fears He has a brother Who's been sailing here for years But if I have this friend for long He'll hear this sad confusing song And look away from all he thinks he knows And wonder where it goes Turn his head and look away Alone, alone Turn his head and look away Alone, alone And I found a friend Who says he's shedding no more tears Got him a woman Who will love him through the years If I've ever known his dreams Things are all the way they seem He'll walk away from all his promises And laugh about betrayal Turn his head and look away Alone, alone Turn his head and look away Alone, alone And I found a friend Who has not been here very long He goes 'round and 'round And spins you out a song He says his memory's to blame When nothing ever sounds the same Here, \"I'm going inside the words\
