With My Friends

With My Friends
Music by Peter Link
Lyrics by Ragan Courtney and Peter Link

In an hour or two I will shoulder my load
And head out on that lonely road again
But just for the moment it’s cozy and warm
There ain’t nobody here except my friends

With my friends
There’s nothing left to prove
There’s nothing that’s forbidden or taboo
With my friends
There’s no way I have to be
I like them and they seem quite fond of me

Nothin’ to hide
The heart swings wide
You’re lookin’ deep in someone’s eyes
You fall inside

One of ya’ smiles
Maybe him maybe you
One of ya’ speaks
Ya’ don’t care who
There’s no damn difference between you two
An’ it feels that close with all of you

With my friends
With my friends
With my friends
With my friends

With my friends
Seems like my friends since time began
The Lord don’t give much more than this to man
With my friends
There’s nothin’ to explain
Though kings and kingdoms crumble
Friends remain

No I never asked to be born in a world
Where men are out to murder other men
Now I found me a place so peaceful and safe
Where everybody’s everybody’s friend

Now all of my dreams
An’ all my pride
An’ all them plans jus’ up an’ died
They’re all just as gone as yesterday

Now I got you
An’ you got me
An’ what more would we ever need
To bear these trials an’ be on our way
Yes it feels so close with all of you

With my friends
With my friends
With my friends
I ain’t goin’ walkin’ no lonely road
I’ll be with my friends
With my friends
With my friends
