A Friend of Mine
Did you ever have a flash of lightning strike at your feet?
Did you ever hold a treasure in the palm of your hand that you knew you couldn't keep?
Did you ever give your heart to someone who broke it time after time?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Have you watched all your hope and dreams go up in smoke?
Have you cut and saved and burn up a little muscle, still come up broke?
Have you ever been so lonesome, you thought you were losing your mind?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Still, walls can look so shallow
But they can run so deep
Just because your eyes are closed
Don't mean it's a peaceful sleep
Sometimes you get to plant the grapes
But you never get to taste the wine
If you know what I'm talking about
You're a friend of mine
Do you get tired of being told the facts you know they are not real?
Do you get a little mad when somebody you don't know tells you how you're supposed to feel?
Do you know about the world where you don't and you still get left behind?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Still, walls can look so shallow
But they can run so deep
Just because your eyes are closed
Don't mean it's a peaceful sleep
Sometimes you get to tend the grapes
But you never get to taste the wine
If you know what I'm talking about
You're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
Did you ever hold a treasure in the palm of your hand that you knew you couldn't keep?
Did you ever give your heart to someone who broke it time after time?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Have you watched all your hope and dreams go up in smoke?
Have you cut and saved and burn up a little muscle, still come up broke?
Have you ever been so lonesome, you thought you were losing your mind?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Still, walls can look so shallow
But they can run so deep
Just because your eyes are closed
Don't mean it's a peaceful sleep
Sometimes you get to plant the grapes
But you never get to taste the wine
If you know what I'm talking about
You're a friend of mine
Do you get tired of being told the facts you know they are not real?
Do you get a little mad when somebody you don't know tells you how you're supposed to feel?
Do you know about the world where you don't and you still get left behind?
If you know what I'm talking about, you're a friend of mine
Still, walls can look so shallow
But they can run so deep
Just because your eyes are closed
Don't mean it's a peaceful sleep
Sometimes you get to tend the grapes
But you never get to taste the wine
If you know what I'm talking about
You're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
