Friend of Mine Lyrics

If I was a friend of mine

I would ask me why I do it

Why I keep you in my life

When you only cause me pain

If I was a friend of mine

I would take me round the ruins

Showing me with clearer eyes

Why I've got to walk away

I know we're just friends

And I've got no illusions

About where this ends

Why we do what we're doing

We both take what's left

You don't love me, you don't lie

Except to call us friends

When you're no friend of mine

Cause if you were a friend of mine

You would ask me how I'm doing

You wouldn't be scared that I'd

Shrug my shoulders, turn away

And if you were a friend of mine

You'd be brave and face the music

Play it with the volume high

And you'd know I'm not okay

I know we're just friends

And I've got no illusions

About where this ends

Why we do what we're doing

We both take what's left

You don't love me, you don't lie

Except to call us friends

When you're no friend of mine

When you're no friend of mine

Cause if you were a friend of mine

You wouldn't want to waste my time

And if you were a friend of mine

You wouldn't know what I taste like

And if you were a friend of mine

You wouldn't want to waste my time

And if you were a friend of mine

You wouldn't know, you wouldn't know

We're just friends

And I've got no illusions

About where this ends

Why we do what we're doing

We both take what's left

You don't love me, you don't lie

Except to call us friends

When you're no friend of mine
