Friends — текст песни (Joan Armatrading)

It`s been so long
Since I`ve seen you
My old friend

I remember your eyes
How they would shine
Those crazy times
When you and I
Fooled around

I remember the time
You fell in love
Didn`t know how
To say goodbye
To your baby

And you made me take
The goodbye note
Around
And that little girl
She cried and cried
And she asked me if
I knew exactly why
You`d gone

I told a like
I said you felt
She`d be much happier
With someone else
But then you`d do
The same for me

Remember when
We stayed out late
We`d cause a fight
But we would never stay
To the end

I loved you then
I love you still
You know I think
I always will
You`re a good friend
A good friend
To me

Who was it
Who came for me when I was
Stranded in the bad man`s land
Who was it
Who put up bail for me when I was
So desperate to get out
Who believed with me
That I was not guilty
Who gave me beer when I was thirsty
And who gave me twenty-five dollars to hold
