My Friend
Just got a call and I must say
Within a moment, we were back in play
A couple of quips, a few short steps
We just got to grips like you had never left
How can you touch me from so far away?
But then I realized, you're only reaching from yesterday
You bring out that much in me?
That stuff so deep within my chemistry, my friend
I don't see you as often as I might
Don't see you as often as I would like
Someone I seem to know so well
Intertwined in parallel
We can go to town on the little itty-bits
Or go deeper down to the shitty, nitty-grits
Any solution, we'll find it, probably
Through a fusion of our like-minded philosophy
How does it happen straight off the bat?
So much laughing; like we almost shat
No pressure, no problem and no crap
Good tales, good times, all good crack
And if it comes to the rub and the skies all turn black
You know I've got you covered and I know you've got my back
No deeper understanding, no finer blend
My true companion, my true friend. My friend
Cups of coffee, a couple of beers, any excuse
To shoot the breeze or sing the blues
Life's little pleasures, a life-long prize
Chillin' together till one of us ups 'n' dies
What it is, hard to quantify
A simple connection or just simply the vibe
But whatever it is can be simplified
As in step, stride for stride, heading into the sunset side by side
How does it happen? What is the knack?
How we just tap in and carry on like that
No pressure, no problem and no crap
Good tales, good times, all good crack
And when it comes to the rub and the skies all turn grey
I'm backing you up and you're with me all the way
No deeper understanding, no finer blend
My true companion, my true friend
Always get what I send. Never a threat, never pretend. My friend
Within a moment, we were back in play
A couple of quips, a few short steps
We just got to grips like you had never left
How can you touch me from so far away?
But then I realized, you're only reaching from yesterday
You bring out that much in me?
That stuff so deep within my chemistry, my friend
I don't see you as often as I might
Don't see you as often as I would like
Someone I seem to know so well
Intertwined in parallel
We can go to town on the little itty-bits
Or go deeper down to the shitty, nitty-grits
Any solution, we'll find it, probably
Through a fusion of our like-minded philosophy
How does it happen straight off the bat?
So much laughing; like we almost shat
No pressure, no problem and no crap
Good tales, good times, all good crack
And if it comes to the rub and the skies all turn black
You know I've got you covered and I know you've got my back
No deeper understanding, no finer blend
My true companion, my true friend. My friend
Cups of coffee, a couple of beers, any excuse

No deeper understanding, no finer blend
My true companion, my true friend
Always get what I send. Never a threat, never pretend. My friend
