Sam Draper - Friends, Lovers Lyrics




For two weeks now
I've meant to come and get you
A tank of petrol, a bunch of flowers
And a beautiful surprise
Now all I need is a number
Or to remember where you live
And perhaps a second name

But let's step back
I woken up drunk and high from the night before
In the basement of a flat, in a street, in a town
Just where, I am not sure
I know I was discussing Russian history
With some half-Norwegian couple from Camden Town
And sobering up suddenly doesn't seem quite so inviting

Because
There's friends, and there's lovers
Confuse the two
And it's the end for you

Now she claims
My reputation beat me here
Slept with the flatmate and drunk all the wine
That got on a train back home alone
Hey
I'm starting to believe my hype
And we'll see who's right
When I hit the town tonight
There's nothing you can't do
If you just numb enough of yourself

Because
There's friends, and there's lovers
Confuse the two
And it's the end for you
The end of you

So tell me straight, and tell me true
Is there anything I can do
To make you put your clothes back on?

Crawling from bedrooms
From face the glorious light of the lamppost
Draw a map on a matchbox
I'll treasure hunt my way back home
Another weekend ends and I'm slightly older
But none the wiser
And the outline of your face
Is fading away

Which brings me back to where I began
And I was dreaming that I was wandering
From my car, up the path to the door
And into the kitchen
And you touch my hand
And it's alright
With a smile, then a laugh, and a fight
And I will sleep tonight
I think I can sleep tonight

Because
There's friends, and there's lovers
Confuse the two
And it's the end for you
The end of you
