A Friend For Life

LETRA

A Friend For Life

Through a smoke-filled glass, on a desperate night
When the sole of my shoe lets in rain
When the heart's tired of running and the milk's gone sour
Will your feelings still be the same
When the match won't light, so the flames don't tremble
And the years are condemning us too
I'll need a soulmate, to hold me, and a friend for life
And I'm hoping it might be you
When I think of life, as a chance not taken
Or as a compromise tinged with regret
When the kids leave for breeding and the TV's king
Will you tell me we're not done yet
Will you think of me, as a distant island
Or will you come with me to the moon
I'll need a soulmate, to hold me, and a friend for life
And I'm hoping it might be you
Give me asylum, and I'll keep the faith
Keep me in coffee and so safe
And I'll feed your cats, and I'll paint walls
And I'll be your one night stand
Will you come with me, in the certain knowledge
That the catch is, there's no catch at all
I'll need a soulmate, to hold me, and a friend for life
And I'm hoping it might be you
Yes, I'm certain it must be you
