One day friend

You don't see me in the papers
And you think something's wrong
Don't hear any news
No picture for a month
You start to worry
I might need some help
The thought hits you quickly
Just as it is gone

And then you forget
And then you forget
And then you forget

That you just love to call me your friend

Then we bump into each other
And you seem so confused
Pretending you're glad
Always want to hear the news
I say I'm all right
My choice is a quiet life
A well-trained smile
Is all you reply

And then you forget
And then you escape
And go your way

And then you forget
And then you escape
And go your way

You don't see me in the papers
And you think something's wrong
Don't hear any news
No picture for a month

Then we bump into each other
And you seem so confused
Pretending you're glad
Always want to hear the news

And then you forget
And then you forget
And go your way
And then you forget
And then you escape
And go your way

That you just love to call me
That you just love to call me your friend
