If the night turned cold and the stars look down
And you'd hug yourself on the cold cold ground
You wake the morning in a stranger's coat
No one would you see
You'd ask yourself who'd watch me
My only friend who could it be
It's hard to say I hate to say it
But it's probably me
When your belly's empty and the hunger's so real
And you're too proud to beg and too dumb to steal
You search the city for your only friend
And no one would you see
You'd ask yourself who'd watch for me
A solitary voice to speak out and set me free
CHORUS
I hate to say it I hate to say it
But it's probably me
You're not the easiest person I ever got to know
It's hard for us both to let our feelings show
And some will say I should let you go your way
You only make me cry
But if there's one guy just one guy
Who laid down his life for you and I
REPEAT CHORUS
The world's gone crazy and it makes no sense
There's only one voice that comes to your defence
And the jury's out and your eyes search the room
One friendly face is all you need to see
And if there's on guy just one guy
Who laid down hsi life for you and I
REPEAT CHORUS TO FADE
