Friends and Family Lyrics

Will you ever know

The science of our being?

Will you ever show

The colors that you're feeling?

Will you ever blow

The cold wind back at me?

Just take the wheel on this winding road

And cut the puppet string

Cause I have always know

It wouldn't be you and me

Cause I have always shown

My face when I bleed

And I have always worn

A tired heart on my sleeve

Just take the wheel on the straight and narrow

In the drivers seat

Tales like these have been told

To Joe's like you and me

But it never quite hits home

Cause a couple pages are missing

But when you play the leading role

You know the script for every scene

And the ones who got your back when you're on yours

Are true friends and family

This ripped up treasure map

That you help the missing piece

Would carried me on your back

The length of the seven seas

And my troubles they begin to stack

You tell me not to retreat

Just open the door and sit next to me

My copilot in the passenger's seat

Tales like these have been told

To Joe's like you and me

But it never quite hits home

Cause a couple pages are missing

But when you play the leading role

You know the script for every scene

And the ones who got your back when you're on yours

Are true friends and family

By my side in the passenger's seat
