[00:00.00]Just Good Friends - Peter Hammill
[00:04.09]Written by:Peter Hammill
[00:08.18]Drawing back the curtains
[00:10.77]Sluggish city daylight in the afternoon
[00:17.76]Here's that special silence
[00:19.81]Just before you walk out of the hotel room
[00:25.69]Each time we're so close I assume
[00:30.41]That we'll never be again
[00:34.85]Oh how long must we
[00:39.48]Pretend
[00:44.03]A casual affair is all that you can spare
[00:48.20]From your emotional change
[00:53.18]A calendar of meetings strangers on the street
[00:57.22]The best we ever arrange
[01:01.56]Now I just can't stand all the pain
[01:06.05]All the constant make and mend
[01:10.88]How long can we pretend
[01:18.24]That we're just good friends
[01:24.16]I gave you my devotion
[01:28.48]Hiding nothing up my sleeve
[01:32.95]If I walked clean out of your life
[01:36.65]Would you even notice me leave
[01:41.83]So much tangled up emotion
[01:46.33]Should I stay or should I go
[01:50.78]If I walked clean out of your life
[01:54.48]How long would it take you to know
[01:58.64]Are we such good friends
[02:20.76]Oh how sordid this has become
[02:25.42]As the means approach the end
[02:29.56]And how long can we pretend
[02:40.20]I gave you my devotion
[02:44.71]Hiding nothing up my sleeve
[02:49.01]If I walked clean out of your life
[02:52.63]Would you even notice me leave
[02:57.99]So much tangled up emotion
[03:02.40]Should I stay or should I go
[03:06.92]If I walked clean out of your life
[03:10.42]How long would it take you to know
[03:24.58]If I walked clean out of your life
[03:28.39]How long would it take you to know
[03:32.96]Are we still
[03:35.41]Good
[03:36.34]Friends
