a friend to you - joe henry lyrics

Loading...

day after day
i wonder why
this still should be
any kind of surprise;
nothing has changed
when i open my eyes —
i’m just a friend…
i’m just a friend to you.

tables are turned
end over end
and this is a room
where no love has been;
and no love lives now
and, though i pretend —
i’m just a friend…
i’m just a friend to you.

you turned to me
without knowing how
i always was there
and am, even now;
taking your arm
when you would allow,
whenever a bitter wind blew…

and blow, it still does
in rings around my bed
and plays through the trees
that twist in my head;
i live to be more
but instead —
i’m just a friend…
i’m just a friend to you.

why must i grieve
like something was lost,
like the light had gone out
where our streets would cross;
though this was always
our way when we walked,
this isn’t a street that goes through…

i wouldn’t change
the words that i spoke,
though they haunt me now
like clothes smell of smoke;
they lay on the floor
in this room where i woke
alone, just a friend…
just a friend to you.
