My Friend Tonight

The only one with a party dress

That could fall in blue waves upon the floor

And step the country waltz that I'd seen her dance

On her front lawn of her house all alone

She lies still beside me with the t.v. on

I see her mummy look so sad

Turn down the volume and watch worried women weep

And touch the ring on her frozen hand

But she's my friend tonight

She's my friend tonight

Now I watch the flames leap up into the sky

From a fire that swallows all her clothes

She's stretched across a floor that's never been her home

I'll take her with me when i go

But she's my friend tonight

She's my friend tonight

We're young again

Oh you never missed me this way...

But she's my friend tonight

She's my friend tonight
