Lyrics:

I was the girl who caught you and

I was the girl who saw you fall down

I broke the door down and I saw it all



I miss the year we spent apart now

I got your card

I heard from someone you made a new start,

A new start



How will you make yourself beautiful to me

How many people does it take to make you shine

How many men to say you're a friend of mine

You're a friend of mine



Look at the roof over your head now

Into another city

Hold out only for the one who leads you so far and

Forget the expectations now

Forget I ever said a word

Keep only the obligations to your hope and to your fear



How will you make yourself beautiful to me

How many people does it take to make you shine

How many men to say you're a friend of mine

You're a friend of mine

you're a friend of mine



You were the girl who caught my eye

Only eventually,

Finally realizing it would never be

Forget the expectations now

You want me to hold the bar

measure of your frustration,

Until your wounds become a scar



How will you make yourself beautiful to me

How many people does it take to make you shine

How many men to say you're a friend of mine

You're a friend of mine

You're a friend of mine
