Are Friends Electric
It's cold outside And the paint's peeling Off of my walls There's a man outside In a long coat, grey hat Smoking a cigarette And now The light fades out And I wonder What I'm doing In a room like this And there's A knock on the door And just for a second I thought I remembered you So now I'm alone And now I can think for myself About little deals And S.U's And things I just don't understand A white lie that night SongtexteOr a sly touch at times I don't think it Meant anything to you So I open the door It's the 'friend' That I'd left In the hallway 'Please sit down' A candlelit shadow On a wall near the bed You know I hate to ask But are 'friends' electric? Only mine's broke down And now I've no-one to love So I found out Your reasons For the phone calls And smiles And it hurts And I'm lonely And I should never Have tried And I missed you tonight It must be time to leave You see it meant Everything to me Now the light fades out And I wonder What I'm doing In a room like this It's cold outside And the paint's peeling Off of my walls You know I hate to ask But are 'friends' electric? Only mine's broke down And now I've no-one to love (Thanks to Rafael for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
