Lyrics Friend - Trey Anastasio, Ghosts of the Forest

Friend

So this is it
It’s over
I don’t wanna look
'Cause I don’t want it to end
'Cause I’ve traveled all over this big old world
And it’s so hard to find a real friend
People come and people go
In and out of your life
And it don’t take long to realize
The real thing don’t come every day
When I was up, I had so many friends
When I was down, they were gone so fast
And you were always the one who stayed
And why do we have to wait until it’s gone
To know what love is?
