I'll Be Your Friend Lyrics

by Bright Eyes

You said they layed out lots of coke but you don't know how much you did. Now you don't want me to go home 'cause you're afraid you might get sick. It's like the bad news you accept just like the boy you'll go out and get. It's all the drunken promises. I'll be your friend but you just haven't made me yet.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e39249-bright_eyes~ill_be_your_friend_lyrics.html ]
So you come chasing after me when I'm just barely out the door. Down in the belly of the beast, we waited with the passing drugs. Just like that train I gotta catch, just like that song I can't finish. It's the mistake I won't regret. You'll be my friend but I just haven't made you yet. You'll be my friend but I just haven't made you.

Now you talk when you're drunk like you're standing in front of a microphone and each night it repeats and you fall into me like a domino. And you talk when you're drunk like you're writing it out for an article. And you think that I lie when I tell you good-bye and I'm gonna go 'cause I gotta go. But I guess it's a success we're at our best when you say oooh. I'll be your friend you just haven't made me yet.
