Lyrics From the Stars - White Lies
I
saw
a
friend
that
I
once
knew
at
a
funeral
He
took
the
time
out
to
be
seen
His
eyes
kept
glancing
to
the
hour
hand
on
the
gold
watch
That
he'd
been
given
by
a
magazine
He
didn't
cry
when
the
priest
gave
the
sermon
Just
pulled
up
the
woolen
collar
on
his
fleece
Crossed
his
arms,
gave
a
sigh
and
checked
the
time
again
As
he
sat
inches
from
the
wife
of
the
deceased
He
catches
raindrops
from
his
window
It
reminds
him
how
we
fall
From
the
stars,
back
to
our
cities
Where
we've
never
felt
so
small
Raindrops
from
his
window
Making
puddles
in
his
hands
He
sees
how
quick
the
water's
rising
As
another
raindrop
lands
He
took
a
chauffeur
driven
car
back
to
his
hotel
Passing
through
the
city
streets
where
he
was
born
He
said,
"Driver,
what's
happened
to
these
buildings?
They
all
look
rundown
and
so
forlorn"
He
took
a
shower
in
the
bathroom
of
his
penthouse
Put
the
"Do
not
disturb"
on
his
door
When
the
maid
came
in
the
morning
She
found
him
shivering
on
the
bedroom
floor
He
catches
raindrops
from
his
window
It
reminds
him
how
we
fall
From
the
stars
back
to
our
cities
Where
we've
never
felt
so
small
Raindrops
from
his
window
Making
puddles
in
his
hands
He
sees
how
quick
the
water's
rising
As
another
raindrop
lands
He
catches
raindrops
from
his
window
It
reminds
him
how
we
fall
From
the
stars
back
to
our
cities
Where
we've
never
felt
so
small
Raindrops
from
his
window
Making
puddles
in
his
hands
He
sees
how
quick
the
water's
rising
As
another
raindrop
lands
