new york isle/wasn't mine Was it me/or just my kind Spinning softly/and talking cheap Cause there's no place left to be But a road that just goes on To every leaving town Friends as lovers And lovers as friends Shall we dance/into the night As the jukebox moans/and pours us tight Friends and lovers And lovers and friends Cause there's no place left to be Than wrapped around you now In every passing town Us as lovers/and us as friends There's no prayer/by a dashboard light Flagging goals/and blowing signs Cause they say/you are the one And there's no place left to be Than where you stand right now I walk these leaving towns Friends as lovers And lovers as friends To your back/i speak aloud To your face/i'm only proud We're friends with lovers And lovers with friends Darling boy (she says) You're on my mind (she says) I feel your skin (she says) As if it's mine (she says) This pain is sweet/too sweet to touch And there's no place left to be Than the shadow of your life In everyone passing town Friends and lovers And lovers as friends
