Lyrics

Asking

I have been asking for a friend
There is no limit
There is no end
I rest my head on his shoulder

I'll see you later
When we get older

I'll see you later
When we get older

I'll see you later
When we get older

I have been asking for a friend
There is no limit
There is no end
I rest my head on his shoulder
I'll see you later
When we get older

I have been asking for a friend
There is no limit
There is no end
I rest my head on his shoulder
I'll see you later
When we get older

I could have shown things that you would not find
I could have shown things that you would not find
I could have shown things that you would not find
And so much has been left unsaid

I have been asking for a friend
There is no limit to his end

I have been asking for a friend
There is no limit to his end

I have been asking for a friend
I have been asking for a friend
