Lyrics
Hey Friend
Hey friend it's me again did you ask me a question
Hey friend won't you lend a hand I think that's what you said
Hey friend won't you let me in I been walking out here in this storm half dead
Hey friend I'm here for you again, I think that's what you said
So do you know what becomes of you at this stage of your life ?
Do you know what becomes of you when you turn it up a little higher and you try to make it through
Hey friend it's not all over now it's not too late again
Hey friend you can let it all work out, you can let it flow downstream
Hey friend things are not the way they seem you can move a little slower like the moments in a dream
Hey friend I'm here for you
Do you know what becomes of this place, when you take it from your mind?
It disappears and it goes away, when you take it up a little higher it leaves no trace behind.
Hey friend Take your eyes off your life, I think that's what you said.
Hey friend take your gaze off your face it doesn't really matter all that much what's in your head.
Hey friend take your mind off your mistakes I think that's what it takes to come alive again.
Hey friend I'm here for you, Hey friend I'm here for you again.
Hey friend I'm here for you, Hey friend I'm here for you again.
