Friend For Life Lyrics - Another Country - Rod Stewart

Through a smoke-filled glass on a desperate night 

When the sole of my shoe lets in rain 

When the heart's tired of running and the milk's gone sour 

Will your feelings still be the same? 

When the match won't light so the flames don't tremble 

And the years are condemning us too 

I'll need a soulmate to hold me and a friend for life 

And I'm hoping it might be you 

When I think of life as a chance not taken 

Or as a compromise tinged with regret 

When the kids leave for breeding and the TV's king 

Will you tell me we're not done yet?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Will you think of me as a distant island 

Or will you come with me to the moon? 

I'll need a soulmate to hold me and a friend for life 

And I'm hoping it might be you 

Give me asylum and I'll keep the faith 

Keep me in coffee and so safe 

And I'll feed your cats and I'll paint walls 

And I'll be your one night stand 

Will you come with me in the certain knowledge 

That the catch is there's no catch at all? 

I'll need a soulmate to hold me and a friend for life 

And I'm hoping it might be you 

Yes, I'm certain it must be you.
