Real Friends - Benjamin Francis Leftwich

So, you told me all the time

Your past had all but left your mind

Real friends, how many of them, how many new?

Cause now, you love him all the time

Where were you when the train was pulling out

Stood staring at the roof saying didn’t they warn me

Wouldn’t you like to believe, that we

Could have carried any weight that was coming down

Home ties are the strongest

Why didn’t you save me

Are you practising all that you preach?

You’re always talking with your friends

Saying that boy can sing but he’ll never love again

Could have been married in the summer, separated in the spring

Would have been the story of the year in our home town then

Where were you when the train was pulling out

Stood staring at the roof saying didn’t they warn me

Wouldn’t you like to believe, that we

Could have carried any weight that was coming down

Home ties are the strongest

Why didn’t you save me

Are you practising all that you preach?

Now, I could never blame you for believing

In the start of a dream in the day

So, can you really blame me for believing

And to long for return to the days
