Friend of a Friend

There I go again
Following the same old trend
Putting up a cool defence
Never let you in
Here comes another night
Passed me in the blink of an eye
I'm retreating like my own hair line
Just sleep on walking down the line

And I know that I've been slipping away
If I come over will a connection be made?

Hey loneliness is a state of mind
Lay awake in the silence
Give me something that's vaguely sentimental
I won't fight it
Something to blind my vision and dull the sound
Sick of being a stranger
Let me inch a bit closer
I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend

We can run away
Get lost in the blues and the greys
And when we've got nothing else to say
Babe I know it's crazy, just keep talking anyway
Here comes another night
Passed me in the blink of an eye
Will take another year to go by
Just waiting for your love to come my way

Hey loneliness is a state of mind
Lay awake in the silence
Give me something that's vaguely sentimental
I won't fight it
Could our lonely hearts ever beat in time
Sick of being a stranger
Let me inch a bit closer
I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend
