Friend of Mine

She wasn't just a shoreline light
Burning out in front of me
She wasn't just a highway line
Stretching to infinity
She wasn't just a changing tide
Turning ships to oceans wide
She was a friend of mine

She wasn't just a hand to hold
I will go where she will go
She wasn't just a heart of gold
Stop the search, she's got it all
She wasn't just a whispered vow
Tongues of flame in every line
Rising up to testify
She was a friend of mine
She was a friend of mine

Through the blame, the blood
That your momma gave up
Through your daddy's neighbourhood we'll fly
Past the clay, the dust
That our mouths are made of
When we kiss there's something
Pure inside

She was a friend of mine

She wasn't just a smiling sky
Not a cloud to break her gaze
She wasn't just an old July
Echoed through an Autumn day
She wasn't just an August night
Lift me out of place and time
Shrugging off the danger signs
She was a friend of mine
She was a friend of mine
