Out of the corner of my eye The prettiest girl just said goodbye Such a sad day but where was I? Drinking with a friend Train in the station And we'll hop on the back Nothing to lose We've got nothing to lack When we're rolling this fast We don't look back Drinking with a friend Up in the morning And there's nowhere to go Too sick to feel the wind blow Only ever been one cure I know Drinking with a friend So many things that I wanted say Always found the words that got in the way I looked into your eyes and you turned away Drinking with a friend Down at the bottom And my blood's run thin I always intended to start again But I'll never rise above the den Drinking with a friend I went out to your window As black as the coal Night as empty to sell the souls The price we pay for alcohol Drinking with a friend Nothing to show for nothing I've done Someday I'll be a skeleton Put me into the ground Let me reach for the sun Drinking with a friend
