Lyrics I Will Never (Be Your Friend) - Irish Stew

I Will Never (Be Your Friend)

You came into my world
Settled me down in spite of my wild life
You took my hand, I felt so strong
When I saw myself in your skyblue eyes
And the more I looked at you the more you smiled at me And the more we talked I lived my sweetest dream
I tried to move my head, I tried to close my eyes
‘twas only you I could see, and then I realised…
Chorus:
I will never be your friend
Life has always been worse than it seemed
I feel so sad, I just pretend
You’re so close, but so far away from me Her skin was white like a lily
Her bonny cheeks were red as a rose
Her eyes were blue as the ocean
She made me happy, was just one of those
And then one day, after time of happiness
She made me sad and made me think of the end
She picked the colours, painted my entire world
Then soiled all she painted with a hasty move
Cold morning, still the same
Now every drop of dew is a teardrop in my eye
And these wounds don’t seem to heal
The clock is counting down in my tired heart
The last time I saw you was at N.N.W.O
I killed my seventh pint and I wanted seven more
I was as ruined as ship that couldn’t reach the shore
The time cannot erase the things we shared before
And now, I’m roaming the streets
Refreshing memory of what we used to be Will I give myself another try?
The only home I’ve ever had was in your arms
Now I feel so hollow, lost in space and time
But there’s a flame, still burning in this heart of mine
I’ll give myself a try to find another way
At least I’ll roam again and again…
