Lyrics
I'm your friend no matter what I say
write again words my mistakes erase
like trying to send a letter on the sea
what are the chances you will hear from me
I never cry no matter how sad the story
I never break down and say I'm sorry
I've never told you you saved me from myself
I'm always out when you call to hurt out loud
I'm always last to hear your aching sounds
I'm always late to meet you Sunday afternoons
When you're flailing and drowning, in need of rope
a hollowed emptied void bereft of hope
I should be there to swing around in time
What are the chances I would be so kind
I never cry no matter how sad the story
I never break down and say I'm sorry
I've never told you you saved me from myself
I'm always out when you call to hurt out loud
I'm always last to hear your aching sounds
I'm always late to meet you Sunday afternoons
I'm always late to meet you
But I'm your friend no matter what I do
