High Life |
You were just like me, and we became friends
Monday I beat you - Tuesday you got your revenge Your mum made crumpets, but my dad made toast We shared our secrets, I loved you the most And we were living the highlife and singing the blues I got a friend, and you’ve always been true You cut your hair short; we all said it looked cool You laughed at my green jeans, and we danced just like fools You drank tequila but I preferred gin, Together through thick and together through thin And we were living the highlife, singing the blues I got a friend, and you’ve always been true |
BREAK...
We drifted so briefly, twelve hours apart Our lives were diverging, you were still in my heart I saw your heartbreak, I saw your pain I saw your healing, you were joyful again And we were living the highlife, singing the blues I got a friend, and you’ve always been true Still sharing the heartaches, still singing the blues I’ve got a friend and you’ve always been true Still sharing our laughter; still sharing our tears I know you’ll be there for a hundred more years And we'll be living the highlife, singing the blues I got a friend, and you’ll always been true Yeah, we'll be living the highlife, singing the blues I' got a friend and you'll always be true This song is for you, always been true This song's for you, you, you, always been true This song's for you |
