A Love Like Friendship (This Started As A Song)
Get yourself the kind of friends who say you still look great
When they haven't even seen your face
The kind who run away with you in the big rat race
Hold your dreams when you can't sleep to make
Sure you'll doze when it's all a calmer pace.
Running through dark backyard streets with me
Unafraid of the moments after it's all said and done because we can see
That friendship isn't built off of a requirement to be
In the same place, time, way as we've always been
If you can't grow together, then you're not growing adequately
If you can't share your secrets then you're not loving truthfully
Get yourself the kind of friends who defend your name
Away from the spotlights because it's a damn shame
To be alone playing this game
I hope you find solace in your attempts to stay
Broken and jagged, tormented in your old way
To hold forever is a love like friendship, no matter how long forever might be
To wrap your weak arms around the warmest for comfort is a strength one can only see
When presented with the greatest of sickness remedies, unadulterated family
Get yourself the kind of friends like me
Because then you'll have clearer eyes with the capacity to see
That your sea green envious jealousy
Comes from a place of loneliness and greed
Such a shame you don't have
Friends like me.
