Song for a Friend by The Slaps Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You walked and I followed you
You didn't get to see your friends
And you posed with the people who
Only wanted picture perfect memories to see you again
You danced but I just watched you
Moving 'til you couldn't stand
And the song never ended 'cause
The world was everything that we could never pretend
[Chorus]
But your song
Is only for a friend
It forgot your words
They were never for real anyways
And you never really wanted to learn
What you were missing all along
But it wasn't for real anyways
[Verse 2]
You left but I didn't need you
Your voice could barely sing your song
But the feet you were dancing with
Kept following your steps all wrong
You left but I didn't see you
You didn't seem to draw a crowd
And luckily you were talking with
A man that could keep you around
[Chorus]
But your song
Was only for a friend
It forgot your words
They were never for real anyways
And you never really wanted to learn
What you were missing all along
But it wasn't for real anyways
You walked and I followed you
You didn't get to see your friends
And you posed with the people who
Only wanted picture perfect memories to see you again
You danced but I just watched you
Moving 'til you couldn't stand
And the song never ended 'cause
The world was everything that we could never pretend
[Chorus]
But your song
Is only for a friend
It forgot your words
They were never for real anyways
And you never really wanted to learn
What you were missing all along
But it wasn't for real anyways
[Verse 2]
You left but I didn't need you
Your voice could barely sing your song
But the feet you were dancing with
Kept following your steps all wrong
You left but I didn't see you
You didn't seem to draw a crowd
And luckily you were talking with
A man that could keep you around
[Chorus]
But your song
Was only for a friend
It forgot your words
They were never for real anyways
And you never really wanted to learn
What you were missing all along
But it wasn't for real anyways
