Friend
I’ve been on my own
Tryna carry this alone
Only so much weight my back could take, I’m sinkin’ like a stone
And now I see my face in a broken window pane
I could use someone to help me pick up the pieces that remain
When everything is blue, ooh
All I need is you, ooh
I’m so close to the edge
And I need a friend, yeah, I need a friend
Somebody when the world starts cavin’ in
I need a hand, yeah, I need a friend
I’m tryin’ to remember what it’s like
To be young and alive
I’m so close to the edge
And I need a friend, I need a friend
Oh, where are you now?
I’ve been callin’ to reach out
‘Cause I’m only human goin’ through it
My eyes rain like clouds
Would you take my call
When my head’s against the wall?
And would you sit me down and hear me out?
Would you call me beautiful?
I’m so close to the edge
And I need a friend, yeah, I need a friend
Somebody when the world starts cavin’ in
I need a hand, yeah, I need a friend
I’m tryin’ to remember what it’s like
To be young and alive
I’m so close to the edge
And I need a friend, I need a friend, oh
When everything is blue, ooh (and I need a friend, I need a friend, I need a friend)
All I need is you, ooh (and I need a friend)
I’m so close to the edge
And I need a friend, I need a friend
Somebody when the world starts cavin’ in
I need your hand, I need a friend
