Saint Philips Friend by The Amboy Dukes Lyrics
Happiness just came in
It pierced my skin
Insights of Christmas lights right now
I'm so deeply in
For I'm Saint Philips friend
I've left my mind and soul behind somehow
But my life means more to me than before
And I'm not afraid to walk out the door
Calling my name doesn't seem such a chore
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
Look into my eye
And You'll realize
That I'm not handing you a line
Whether right or wrong
I must go along
Saint Philips friend until the end of time
No handwriting on the wall
Tells me to stop it all
But I must be there when my Saint Philip calls
For without him I surely would fall
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
People blush each time I rush
The cry for peace is heard the least
Some day man will understand
Or he will destroy this land
I found the best way out
I found what life's about
Philip taught me not to fear my death
He's shown me through the maze
For this I'll sing his praise
And worship him with my last dying breath
So if you want happiness listen to me
Look only at the things you want to see
Life is a joke, and it always will be
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
Saint Philips friend
It pierced my skin
Insights of Christmas lights right now
I'm so deeply in
For I'm Saint Philips friend
I've left my mind and soul behind somehow
But my life means more to me than before
And I'm not afraid to walk out the door
Calling my name doesn't seem such a chore
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
Look into my eye
And You'll realize
That I'm not handing you a line
Whether right or wrong
I must go along
Saint Philips friend until the end of time
No handwriting on the wall
Tells me to stop it all
But I must be there when my Saint Philip calls
For without him I surely would fall
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
People blush each time I rush
The cry for peace is heard the least
Some day man will understand
Or he will destroy this land
I found the best way out
I found what life's about
Philip taught me not to fear my death
He's shown me through the maze
For this I'll sing his praise
And worship him with my last dying breath
So if you want happiness listen to me
Look only at the things you want to see
Life is a joke, and it always will be
So deeply in Saint Philips friend
Saint Philips friend
