[00:11]It's cold outside
[00:16]And the paint's peeling off of my walls
[00:21]There's a man outside
[00:26]In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette
[00:31]
[00:52]Now the light fades out
[00:57]And i'm wondering what i'm doing in a room like this
[01:02]There's a knock on the door
[01:07]And just for a second i thought i remembered you
[01:11]
[01:33]So now i'm alone
[01:34]Now i can think for myself
[01:38]About little deals
[01:39]And S.U.'s
[01:40]And things that i just don't understand
[01:44]Like a white lie that night
[01:45]Or a slight touch at times
[01:50]I don't think it meant anything to you
[01:54]
[02:21]So i open the door
[02:26]It's the `friend' that i'd left in the hallway
[02:31]"Please sit down"
[02:36]A candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed
[02:40]
[03:02]You know i hate to ask
[03:07]But are `friends' electric?
[03:12]Only mine's broke down
[03:19]And now i've no one to love
[03:21]
[03:58]So i find out your reason
[04:00]For the phone calls and smiles
[04:03]And it hurts
[04:04]And i'm lonely
[04:06]And i should never have tried
[04:08]And i missed you tonight
[04:11]So it's time to leave
[04:16]You see it meant everything to me
[04:20]
