First words you say in tears

complaining how I'm never near

I know I'm lost sometimes

cause I'm grounded in my mind

it's like this, it's like this all the time

first I say you're ok then I go my way

and you're desperate, so desperate when you're down



Here I stand, take my hand

and I'll try to understand you right

understand you right in the best way that I can

cause after all I am your friend



Last words you scream to me

you don't expect too much of me

cause I could give you anything if I just could be myself

It's like that, it's like that that all the time

first I say that you're ok then I go my way again

you're so desperate, you're so desperate but still mine



Here I stand, take my hand

and I'll try to understand you right

understand you right in the best way that I can

cause after all I am your friend



Now the girl is working, now the girl feels fine

now the girl is working, and I am the one who feels down

yeah the girl is working, yeah the girl is right

but if she'll be working until the end of time



And I hope that she will understand me then

in the best way that she can

cause after all I'm her friend



And I hope that she will understand me then

in the best way that she can

cause after all I am her friend until the end
