You've Got a Friend

Buds should be growin' on the trees outside, but no Spring comes here despite the hopes.

No runnin' nothin' to do but hide, tuggin' on the the wrong end of a rope.

Star gazin' on the trampoline, but can't bounce back to go back home.

Don't wanna wake up from this dream, don't want to be here all alone.

No, no, no, no, 'cause no matter how I try, I'll always be behind.

No, no, no, no, can't solve nothin' when I cry, am I deaf or am I blind?

(Chorus)

Reachin' out in the darkest sky,

tryin' to find your love again.

Missin' the memory of you and I,

but I'll always be there till the end.

I'm your friend.

But I'm just your friend.

(2nd verse)

Sittin' by the phone waitin' for you to call, I might as well watch the paint dry.

Gettin' really sick and tired of it all, forgettin' how to walk and whishin' I could fly.

I'm your best friend and your pal, but I'm nothing more than someone you can count on.

Well yes you're a hell of a gal, but I'm waitin' for a never-coming dawn.

No, no, no, no, 'cause even though you like me you'll never really love me.

No, no, no, no, can't be a chooser when I'm beggin' on my knees.

(Chorus) 

Reachin' out in the darkest sky,

tryin' to find your love again.

Missin' the memory of you and I,

but I'll always be there till the end.

I'm your friend.

I'm just your friend.

(Break)

Why can't you like me?

(Why can't you like me?)

Why can't you love me?

(Why can't you love me?)

Why, oh why, oh why?

No matter how I try, I try, I try,

you just can't love me too?

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

(3rd verse)

Can't help but feel defeated when my best isn't good enough for you.

Can't help but feel mistreated when my company's just pointless too.

Mind racin' all the while feelin' confused, what should I say, what should I do?

Left here beaten and abused, it's just on more day here without you.

No, no, no, no, 'cause my hearts torn apart and can't be mended.

No, no, no, no, can't get you to love me, at least I'm befriended.

(Chorus)

Reachin' out in the darkest sky,

tryin' to find your love again.

Missin' the memory of you and I,

but I'll always be there till the end.

But I'm your friend.

I'm just your friend.

You've got a friend.

Till the end.

I'm just a friend.
