There I go again Following the same old trend Putting up a cool defence Never let you in Here comes another night Passed me in the blink of an eye I'm retreating like my own hairline Just sleep on walking down the line And I know that I've been slipping away If I come over will a connection be made? Loneliness is a state of mind Lay awake in the silence Give me something that's vaguely sentimental I won't fight it Something to blind my vision and dull the sound Sick of being a stranger Let me inch a bit closer I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend We can run away Get lost in the blues and the greys When we've got nothing left to say Babe I know it's crazy just keep talking anyway Here comes another night Passed me in the blink of an eye Will it take another year to go by Just waiting for your love to come my way Loneliness is a state of mind Lay awake in the silence Give me something that's vaguely sentimental I won't fight it Could our lonely hearts ever beat in time? Sick of being a stranger Let me inch a bit closer I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend Loneliness is a state of mind Lay awake in the silence Give me something that's vaguely sentimental I won't fight it Could our lonely hearts ever beat in time? Sick of being a stranger Let me inch a bit closer I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend Loneliness is a state of mind Give me something that's vaguely sentimental Something to blind my vision and dull the sound Sick of being a stranger Let me inch a bit closer I wanna be a friend of a friend of a friend
