He could buy you a bed, it won't help you sleep He could give you a watch, not his time to keep He could fly you to Verona or a mountain in the snow But he won't know the places that we used to go I heard he's best friends with Hollywood now And he can afford all the champagne in town I heard he's got a big house up on easy street But I've got a big heart that I want you to keep My fair-weather friend, I wish you could see He'll never love you quite like me He'll sing you a sad song just like one of mine But I know it won't make you cry ♪ Don't you remember the promise we made? As our shadows grew long in the field where we lay That you'd always be you and I'd always be me As the sun fell asleep and so did we My fair-weather friend, I wish you could see He'll never love you quite like me He'll sing you a sad song just like one of mine But I know it won't make you cry My fair-weather friend, I wish you could see He'll never love you quite like me He'll sing you a sad song just like one of mine But I know it won't make you cry I know it won't make you cry
