I'm not your enemy,
I'm the friend that you need
I'm not your enemy,
I'm the friend that you need

It was never my intention
to drive you away.
You choose your own direction
to where I can't say

I heard that things are ending
and you're hiding from me.
You think that I sold you out,
but that's in your mind, that's in your mind.

It may be a long time,
a long time indeed...
I may not be the friend you want,
but i'm the friend that you need.

You think I've forgotten
when you helped me out.
I was down on my race
and you pulled me out.

From where I was living,
from the street at the end.
Don't think i forgot all that,
Do you... Do you my friend?

It may be a long time,
a long time indeed...
I may not be the friend you want,
but i'm the friend that you need.

I heard you've been hanging out on all those places,
that we know you shouldn't go.
Seeing all your old time friends,
that I know you shouldn't know

Where do you think this life is,
Where do you think this life,
Where do you think this life is,
is gonna go?

So, call me up sometime,
when you're done with your cocaine and speed.
I may not be the friend you want,
but i'm the friend that you need.

It may be a long time,
a long time indeed...
I may not be the friend you want,
but i'm the friend that you need.
