Eric Hutchinson - The People I Know lyrics

rate me

I've got a best friend who I've known some time

And after all of these years I've got to read his mind

And when he leaves the room I can feel him sigh

As his thoughts they slip out like whispers

Who would've know it'd be this hard to wait

For one person to person to communicate

And it never feels dramatic while we complicate

Thank god for old friends they always forgive us

Pre-Chorus:

I'm longing for the house remembering all these days

Never done enough, everything feels great

If I am not myself, then who am I pretending to be

(Chorus)

And I said how am I gonna get by

Without the help of the people I know

For better or worse we all come together

And they won't let me die alone

Verse 2:

And I've got a sister who I barely see

Despite the fact the lives right up the block from me

And when we run in to each other on the street

It's like two strangers soul to soul

When I was younger she was younger too

It seems the space is the only thing that really grew

And now we're both grown up and still without a clue

Thank god for family they always forgive us

Pre-Chorus

I'm thinking of the house where we were always raised

And every family tree some history remains

If I am not myself, then who am I pretending to be

(Chorus)

And I said how am I gonna get by

Without the help of the people I know

For better or worse we all come together

And they won't let me die alone

I said they won't let me die alone

Bridge:

Maybe I'm not supposed to be close

To all of the people I need the most need (the most)

Chorus:

And I said

How am I gonna get by

Without the help of the people I know

For better or worse we all come together

And they won't let me die alone

I said now

How am I gonna get by

When I'm afraid of the people I know

For better or worse we all come together

And they won't let me die alone

I said they won't let me die alone

I said they won't let me die alone

I said they won't let me die alone
