Always, Your Friend

Words and music by Joe Dickinson

It’s easy to forget your place

And think that you don’t have a face

But when you’re in need please come back to me

I promise I’m always your friend

The road that we traveled has split

But some things you can’t just forget

The smile of the sun as an empty day’s done

I promise I’m always your friend

The crystal is scary, unclear

And everything’s tainted with fear

When loneliness creeps and sadness it seeps

I promise I’m always your friend

They say every good thing must die

And we can sit here and ask why

Or move on, accept it, deny it, reject it

I promise I’m always your friend

Remember the minutes we’ve shared

And all of the people who cared

The ghost of the past will fade on us fast

But I promise I’m always your friend

(Instrumental Break)

A candle it burns to the ground

A silence it shatters the sound

Closing the chapter a new one begins

And I promise I’m always your friend

The future is littered with dreams

Don’t wait until fate intervenes

Wherever you go I want you to know

I promise I’m always your friend
