Just a Friend of Mine by Donna Fargo Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1973

His trials now are over
No more crosses to bear
No more excuses
'Bout the way he wears his hair
They try to tell me he's free now
And his memory will live on

Well if dying sets you free
He's free
But to me he's just gone

'Cause he is no Jesus
He will not rise again
Three days after we lay him down
'Cause life's all over for him

There'll be no more tomorrows
No happiness and sorrows
No hellos or goodbyes
'Cause he is no Jesus
Just a friend of mine
We didn't always understand each other
But at least we always tried
We just heard different drummers
And sometimes the drummer lied

We were gonna be friends forever
But forever is not a very long time
'Cause he is no Jesus
Just a friend of mine
'Cause he is no Jesus...

No mother's love
No best friend's cry
Can wake him up to say goodbye
'Cause he he is no Jesus
Just a friend of mine
