Jimmy Nail Absent Friends
I didn't believe all the things
That I'd heard about you
I couldn't believe all the things
That I'd heard were true
And then you took me for a ride
I started on my downward slide
You wouldn't believe all the measures
That I've been through
I should've believed
All the things that I'd were true
I put my coat as the time-bell rings
I give a shiver as the day begins
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
My insides are crying out as I walk alone
A body without a soul looking for a home
Another hold in my expensive shoe
Another shiver as the rain comes through
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
Between the benches nd the swinging door
I've walked that route a million
Times or more
So just remember, when you look away
I climb a mountain every single day
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
