How do you thank a friend
For their heart-breaking presence
For their undivided attention
When you're withering
You say I'm the water
Lapping up against a wall
I feel that so completely
Flowing, churning deeply
Yet stuck after all
How do you thank a friend
With fires bright and fighting fair
Keep on talking 'cause you know they care
Lead me now to brighter times
I only loved you 'cause I loved you blind
I loved you blind
How to do what you intend
Now that your plans got broken
And soft words you weren't sure you'd say
Never get spoken
You show up at seven when the summer sun's still up
I see your sadness clearly
Mad at your mystery
Yet stuck after all
How do you thank a friend
With iron sides and steely stares
Keep on walking, you're a joke I swear
Lead me down the path to fun
I only love you 'cause I loved you blind
I loved you blind
He told me that I should forget it
It don't matter anyhow
Wow, it's been a while since I let it
Chew me up and spit me out
That fear's like fate like drown-me-out
Wield my weight like a solemn sound
Fall
Fall down
Fall
Fall down
How do you thank a friend?
