Hutch - Lost a Friend Lyrics

An electrical fire starts and electrical storm
You're preaching to the choir
You know it doesnt do you no harm
You're taking advantage
Of anything you can get
You know somethings coming just hasn't caught up with you yet

Feel it raining down in sheets
Feel it rain down on me

Everywhere is closing
You're hanging on to the rail
While the vultures start asking which part of you is for sale
Say you're getting closer
I see you slipping further away
Like some cheesy seventies poster you've been hanging in there for days

You've heard it all before
It isn't news
No one sings as sweet as you

You did it like it was nothing
Falling flat on your face
Can you give me something
Cause i feel like i've lost my place

All these years of rejection
They say are good for the soul
The same streets that you skipped down
Are the same ones that'll swallow you whole
You said it'd be easy going out on your own
It's not long before you find now you've nowhere left to call home

The same words you've cherished your whole life
Now cut you like a knife

You did it like it was nothing
Falling flat on your face
Can you give me something
Cause i feel like i've lost my place
Can you promise me something
Can you say this never ends
By the time I find out you were lying
I feel like i've lost a friend
