Lyric Only A Friend
(browne/maitland/glenister)
You have all you want
Your shadow stands so tall
You can t see over it
And It s what you need
There s no-one going to
Stop you from believing it
And so the game begins
Watching the china spin
Walking on gilded pins
(Chorus)
Become More than a mother s son
Who jumped the blocks before the gun
Disturbed the silent sun I know
Only a friend would know
And though you think it just don t show
Only a friend would notice
Only a friend would know
When you re getting down
Remember all the things
We used to dream about
How you d leave this town
And be the only thing they d talk about
There s something to be said
For laying down and playing dead
Why don t you live instead
(Chorus)
You have all you want
Your shadow stands so tall
You can t see over it
And It s what you need
There s no-one going to
Stop you from believing it
And so the game begins
Watching the china spin
Walking on gilded pins
(Chorus)
Become More than a mother s son
Who jumped the blocks before the gun
Disturbed the silent sun I know
Only a friend would know
And though you think it just don t show
Only a friend would notice
Only a friend would know
When you re getting down
Remember all the things
We used to dream about
How you d leave this town
And be the only thing they d talk about
There s something to be said
For laying down and playing dead
Why don t you live instead
(Chorus)
