they say you're brilliant
well you're still a friend of mine
they say they came across the vastness of your mind
they think you're hiding something they could find
well i know your secrets and you're just a friend of mine
i hear you've moved into a green and gold estate
a river and a jetee and a watchman at the gate
i saw you yesterday in the shopping line
and i assured you that you're still a friend of mine
i put my name on for a little view
i advertised that i was friends with you
i told them you were not a diamond they could mine
i told them you were just an old time friend of mine
mine. you're always working in your studio
i come to see you for a while
is this the only thing you think about?
you are the only thing i think about
you are the only thing i think about
