These Kinds of Friends
Will someone else win it for real?Leaving me to figure out how to stealIf it's easier I guess I should be happy with a change of addressWhen I listen to the role of my earsI really lose the sense that I'm still hereI hear it more than my own wordsYours are fading into mumbling blurbsHeading down the sidewalk aloneSome pleasantries are not bad companySome animals stop to say hello when they're hungrySometimes you can't quite work out for twoThere are times when nobody can even chooseThere's nothing that they could doWhom I'm signed up for genius tooLike a cycle it kept happeningIt paused at nine and then kept travelingI can't be a promise madeWe take a risk and see how it will playHeading down the sidewalk aloneA finch is saying, "Hey, how's your family?"It doesn't mean you have to be feeling lonelySongtexteI prefer these kinds of friendsOne's that seize an openingHeading down the sidewalk aloneThe pleasantries are not bad companySome animals stop to say hello when they're hungryI'm no kind of philosopherBut it's funny how you have to look for happyIf you manage to have been on it, be sure to tell mePlease, tell me Aus Songtexte Mania
