Friends for Life |
A world apart is a shining pony |
One horned romantic of old stories |
Dining on landscapes and on sea breezes |
While we rest on seats with the other creatures |
We are benched by the life of Reilly |
On lost subjects of the open hearted |
Till nothing could be said but Sidh |
Friends for life, Oh friends for life |
All pining in the night has ceased |
And with it each noise that once rattled the peace |
So high now, winging it with ease well |
This spring could be step master of peace until |
Held hands keep us swooping in hunger |
Torpedo minded, moonlight hunters |
Tree tops swaying and far beyond view |
Where Sidh may sleep 'n feast far from you |
Friends for life, Oh friends for life |
But you’re tear-away, you’re gonna run off in the night |
You’re gonna leave that girl smiling in the shadow of the spike |
You’re on your way to somewhere but leave no one behind |
Now’s the time to celebrate the world you leave to find |
Let’s celebrate |
Woah woah, woah woah |
La la la la, ba ba, dwoop dwoop |
Oh, Friends for life |
Well do I wish for hope or do I wish for gold |
Should I try to do my best what I am told or |
Do I rebel with a battle cry, well |
To add more tears in this world’s not right so |
I will a night where the musics loud, where |
The campfires warm up the screaming crouds, where |
The girls dance in the hot lights so |
To add more tears in this worlds not right |
But you’re tear-away, you’re gonna run off in the night |
You’re gonna leave that girl smiling in the shadow of the spike |
You’re on your way to somewhere but leave no one behind |
Now’s the time to celebrate the world you leave to find |
Let’s celebrate |
Woah woah, la la la la |
Ooh ohh, ba ba ba, dwoop dwoop |
Woah woah, la la la la |
Ooh ohh, dwoop dwoop |
And the girls in the balcony let down their hair |
And the boys in the cheap seats have to stop and stare |
And the girls in the cheap seats held out their hands, Oh |
Boy! |
If you love that girl you better make your stand that’s right |
Cos you’re tear-away, you’re gonna run off in the night |
You’re gonna leave that girl smiling in the shadow of the spike |
You’re on your way to somewhere but leave no one behind |
Now’s the time to celebrate the world you leave to find |
Let’s celebrate |
Woah woah, la la la la |
Ooh ohh, ba ba ba, dwoop dwoop |
Woah woah, la la la la |
Ooh ohh, dwoop dwoop |
What do I love about where we stand, well |
I love the ground that we’re waltzing on |
Holding fortunes in each palm |
(What's holdin us together is just imagination) x2 |
My friend for life |
