Lyrics Looking For a Friend - David Blue

I never really had a friend of my own
I once had a woman
I thought we were close
But that was then, another life and time
She was my lover, no friend of mine
And it was a man, a long time ago
That planted the seed
That now is this tree
Whose leaves are these stories
These words and these songs
Looking for a friend
Looking for a good friend
There is a lady
In my neighbourhood
I go and see her sometimes
When I'm not feeling good
Together we watch
All the people in the street
We always see someone
We would like to meet
But It's not easy to make a new friend
To get next to a stranger
And take him in
You want to know them
You want to touch
Sometimes you slip
And reveal too much
Looking for a friend
Looking for a good friend
