He's a friend of mine but it's hard to say who
If you
I'll contend to do what I must see through
If you
Let me be helpful
It's all that I can bear

You're a friend of mine but it's hard to say
Who looks like you
Restless and hopeful
It's hard for me to place

You're a friend of mine but it's hard to say
Soon I'll look at you
Jealous and loathsome
It's wrong for me to stare

You're a friend of mine
Who

With mother close, you're dumb
With father froze, you're numb

I'll descend to do what I must to get to
The truth
I intend to be who I must to see proof
Of you

With mother close, you're dumb
With father froze, you're numb
