Good Friends Are Hard To Find Lyrics - Ed Harcourt

I wish you all the more success 

More than I could ever have 

I wish the most happiness 

Good friends are hard to find 

Don't make the mistakes I've made 

And if you do, don't be afraid 

The greatest lie that there is 

Is to believe what they all say 

Social loners and deadbeat hacks 

I open my arms for you 

Cynical romantics want their money back 

And you know much more than I ever knew 

Even though I pretended to 

Church goers wait for the bells to chime 

And I'm in a non-defeatist state of mind 

I know you're shy in the limelight 

God knows you've done it before 

All the girls who dig all your mental scars 

And the boys who pat you on the back 

You and I will take a different path 

But I'll still be cheering you on 

And you know much more than I ever knew 

Even though I pretended to 

I wish you all the more success 

More than I could ever have 

I wish the most happiness 

Good friends are hard to find 

Good friends are hard to find
