[Verse 1]

I didn't want to be the one to forget

I thought of everything I'd never regret

A little time with you is all that I get

That's all we need because it's all we can take

One thing I never see the same when you're 'round

I don’t believe in him, his lips on the ground

I wanna take you to that place in the Roche

But no one gives us any time anymore

He asks me once if I'd look in on his dog

You made an offer for it, then you ran off

I got this picture of us kids in my head

And all I hear is the last thing that you said

[Pre-Chorus]

"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"

I didn't want to anymore, oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

'Cause I know it unlocks like a door

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

Some more again

[Verse 2]

It didn't matter what they wanted to see

He thought he saw someone that looked just like me

The summer memory that just never dies

We worked too long and hard to give it no time

He sees right through me, it's so easy with lies

Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise

He runs his scissors at the seam in the wall

He cannot break it down or else he would fall

One thousand lonely stars hiding in the cold

Take it, oh, I don't wanna sing anymore

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]

"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"

I didn't want to anymore, oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

'Cause I know it unlocks like a door

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

'Cause I know it unlocks like a–

[Bridge]

I don't understand, don't get upset

I'm not with you

We're swimming around, it's all I do

When I'm with you

[Chorus]

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

'Cause I know it unlocks like a door

And we will never be alone again

'Cause it doesn't happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend

Can I give it up or give it away?

Now I thought about what I wanna say

But I never really know where to go

So I chained myself to a friend

'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
