Absent Friends Lyrics - Singles - Jimmy Nail

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
