I heard you threw your phone away

A brave attempt at dodging sympathy

And maybe you're right

Who needs checking up on anyway?

But I remember when I felt my worst

Its friends like you I called on first



The shadows of what seemed so sure

Haunt you as you tread alone

The empty house you bought with her

But even when you're torn apart

Worlds away I feel your pain

And carry you inside my heart



I will search my acquaintance

For a close-lipped friend

With strength and understanding

When I think Ive reached my end

I want to hear your voice again



And it would be so sad

If I learned you never even tried to call me up

But its not so bad

When you remember you've got friends to pick you up
