Absent Friends lyrics

I didn't believe all the things
That I'd heard about you
I couldn't believe all the things
That I'd heard were true

And then you took me for a ride
I started on my downward slide
You wouldn't believe all the measures
That I've been through
I should've believed
All the things that I'd were true

I put my coat as the time-bell rings
I give a shiver as the day begins

You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends

My insides are crying out as I walk alone
A body without a soul looking for a home

Another hold in my expensive shoe
Another shiver as the rain comes through

You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends

Between the benches nd the swinging door
I've walked that route a million
Times or more
So just remember, when you look away
I climb a mountain every single day

You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
You put your spell on me
And I can't shake you free
So let's drink to absent friends
