My Friend

[Section 1: Toby Leaman]

[Verse 1]

My friend says that the end holds nothing more

He don't hide his shame

Says it's all the same

Like a man without a name

[Verse 2]

Old days asleep in the shade by the brandy wine

See a road get paved

See a boy behave

Every bone deserves a grave

[Chorus]

But I heard the Good Lord's warning

Like a nightmare forgot by the morning

With no more terrifying thoughts of dying

Oh, oh-ohhhh

[Verse 3]

My Lord, I'm climbing aboard and I'm going home

No time to lose

There's no time to pack

Take a step and take it back

[Chorus]

But I heard the Good Lord's warning

Like a nightmare forgot by the morning

With no more terrifying thoughts of dying

Oh, oh-ohhh

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Section 2: Scott McMicken]

[Verse 1]

Keep on with the living you'll soon enough be dead

You got the whole world spinning in your head

And you don't want to give it up

(Don't give it up, don't give it up)

(Don't give it up, don't give it up)

[Verse 2]

'Cause no one should be sorry

We're just another day

You can say your goodbyes

But you won't ever go away

(Won't go away, won't go away)

(Won't go away, won't go away)

'Cause love that never leaves is never ever welcome back

And I'm running out of skin thick enough to hide in

(Won't go away, won't go away)

(Won't go away, won't go away)

Now hand in hand we're back in time

We're chasing the train

Looking back, looking back to wave goodbye

We're headed for the same disaster

(Don't give it up, don't give it up)

(Don't give it up, don't give it up)

["Fate" Album Medley]

'Cause I heard the Good Lord's warning

(Don't give it up, don't give it up, don't give it up)

La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da...

You know fate has a funny way of coming around

(Don't give it up, don't give it up, don't give it up)
