Some of my old friends are here The light isn't good but their outlines are clear I'm talking of solitude, silence and doubt I try to escape them, they soon found me out Some of my old friends are here
Some of my friends call today They knew without asking I've thrown it away My thought, word or deed almost likely all free The person to run my affairs isn't me Some of my friends call today
This smile may try to say we never guess But they knew I lie by pretending My world wasn't ending I'm free but it's all for the best
One of my best friends is gone Not knowing I watched her walkout where upon The words I've been crazy to hold back before Came crashing like waves on a white empty shore And no one has ever loved anyone more One of my best friends is gone
