You're something more than sunny
|
And you're electrifying me
|
I'm gonna love your money
|
You got a style that sets me
|
Is this the new temerity?
|
I'm gonna mend you many
|
|
I didn't know it could be nothing (Right!)
|
How could I could know it'd come to nothing? (Right!)
|
But what you say and what you give are to very different things, boy
|
|
I didn't know it could be nothing (Right!)
|
How could I could know it'd come to nothing? (Sight!)
|
But what you say and what you give is no kind of way to live
|
|
My buddy used to be someone who was striving endlessly
|
Somebody who loved me and could never go wasting
|
One who says that it's true or dies
|
|
But my buddy has it made
|
Everybody wants to be his slave
|
Got so many hearts they ought to start a parade
|
Singing nobody could ever replace... replace my buddy
|
|
I don't mean to be frightened
|
But you know we have history
|
This is my life I'm betting
|
|
Your floral face is fading
|
Are you beside or far away?
|
You say I get you, baby
|
What did you say?
|
|
My buddy used to be someone who was striving endlessly
|
Somebody who loved me and could never go wasting
|
One who says that it's true or dies
|
|
But my buddy has it made
|
Everybody wants to be his slave
|
Got so many hearts they ought to start a parade
|
Singing nobody could ever replace... replace my buddy
|
|
You go
|
You come
|
You come
|
You go
|
|
There's no escape
|
There's no control
|
I look for warning signs
|
But warning signs are on the [?]
|
|
Another dream that bites that dust
|
Another bee I cannot trust
|
I should protest
|
Just give in
|
But I wanna be free-ee-ee
|
|
I didn't know it could be nothing (Right!)
|
How could I could know it'd come to nothing? (Right!)
|
But what you say and what you give are to very different things, boy
|
|
I didn't know it could be nothing (Right!)
|
How could I could know it'd come to nothing? (Sight!)
|
But what you say and what you give is no kind of way to live
|
|
My buddy used to be someone who was striving endlessly
|
Somebody who loved me and could never go wasting
|
One who says that it's true or dies
|
|
But my buddy has it made
|
Everybody wants to be his slave
|
Got so many hearts they ought to start a parade
|
Singing nobody could ever replace... replace my buddy
|
|
Buddy
|
My buddy, my buddy, my buddy
|
Your buddy
|
Misses you
|
