where has my friend gone

where has my friend gone
and why did he go away
I don't know what I said or did
to cause him pain
all I know is how I wish that
we were friends again
where has my friend gone
and why did he leave that way
sometimes even the best of friends just
run out of things to say
but I still cry for what might have been
and curse that awful day
where has my friend gone
when will he return, well he wouldn't say
I was wrong to carry on but
pride will have its way
and now I see just what I've lost and
face my lonely day

true story

who am I to tell you what is true
every time I lift my head it's something new
I'm just a simple man
doing the best that I can do
for me and you
but I don't want to die inside with you
how did we ever come so far
with years of tears behind, and that's not all
I protest my innocence
but you had the evidence to show
how low I'd go
but I don't need you to tell me what I know
did you think I'd beg you to stay
fall apart if you went away
go to pieces within a single day
I could live my life alone
no one there to tell me no
wonder if you ever feel that way
I'm just a simple man
doing the best that I can do
for me and you
but I don't want to die inside with you

you were cruel to me and I died
I was taken by surprise
no comfort, no grace
just the picture of your smiling face
yes, you were cruel to me and I died
you found it easy to deride
the useless tears I could not hide
tears of sorrow, tears of shame
tears that put me right back in the game
'cause now you're leaving me behind
you left me broken up inside
you let me roll out with the tide
no purpose, no names
trying anything to ease the pain, 'cause
you left me broken up inside

jerry jerry leave my girl alone
jerry jerry leave my girl alone
there's a girl waiting for you across the ocean
I'm sure that you could bring her back if you took the notion
instead of staying here playing with my girl's emotions
you could go over there and prove your devotion
jerry jerry leave my girl alone
jerry jerry leave my girl alone
I think I see a way out of this conundrum
we get you on a boat and point it in the right direction
you'll be taken with her beauty, and take her hand
and you'll never set sail for that port again

this & that

you get the pleasure I get the pain
you get the sunshine I get the rain
you get the praise I get the blame
I get a sea of tears cried in vain
sometimes what is lost is found again
if you keep your eyes to the ground my friend
you got the manner I got the brain
you got the numbers I got the game
you got the lead I got the chain
you got the station I got the train
do you know what I'm talking about
if not I think you can work it out
I had to scream to make myself heard
I had to fight for every word
I said some things and you know that I meant them
I said them loud so you won't forget them
you never learned to play nice
when a single word would suffice

hey whatcha doin'
holding up the wall by yourself
hey whatcha doin'
holding up the wall by yourself
hey I thought I told you
that's it for today
hey I thought I told you
that's enough for today
watch out for them frogs, daddy
hey where ya goin'
looking that good should be a crime
hey where ya goin'
we could have a pretty good time
