Song For A Friend lyrics

Well you're magic he said

But don't let it all go to your head

Cuz I bet if you all had it all figured out

Then you'd never get out of bed

No doubt

Of all the thing's that I've read what he wrote me

Is now sounding like the man I was hoping

To be

I Keep on keeping it real

Cause it keeps getting easier, he'll see

He's the reason that I'm laughing

Even if there's no one else

He said, you've got to love yourself

You say, you shouldn't mumble when you speak

But keep your tongue up in your cheek

And if you stumble onto something better remember that it's humble that you seek

You got all the skill you need,

Individuality

You got something

You call it gumption

You call it anything you want

Because when you play the fool now

You're only fooling everyone else

You're learning to love yourself

You are love, it's true...

There's no price to pay

When you give and what you take,

That's why it's easy to thank you

You...I'm thanking you for what you do...

Let's say take a break from the day

And get back to the old garage

Because life's too short anyway

But at least it's better then average

As long as you got me

And I got you

You know we'll got a lot to go around

I'll be your friend

Your other brother

Another love to come and comfort you

And I'll keep reminding

If it's the only thing I ever do

I will always love you...

Yes you, it's you, it's you I love...

[music]

[...I wish the world was alive like you.

I wish the wind would blow me through

Another opportunity to approach you

Another telepathic rendez-vous

I wish you well with your weapon of jargon

You've got a double-sided lexicon

I got to try to keep your attention

Gotta write using less emoticons

Gotta figure out the snooze alarm

I wanna lay in your place till dawn

I wanna play in your park come on, now

Let me see your other upper echelon...] (1)

It's you I love... (x3)

[...Hold your own

Know your own name

Go your own way

Just hold your own

Know your own name

Go your own way, it's easy to...] (2)

Climb up over the top.

Survey the state of the soul.

You've got to find out for yourself whether or not you're truly trying.

Why not give it a shot?

Shake it! Take control and inevitably wind up

Find out for yourself all the strengths you have inside of you. (x4)
