Fish - Dear Friend lyrics

rate me

(dick/boult/simmonds)

Dear friendit's been a longlong while

I've been meaning to write you

But it was never my style

But what is these days now I'm a family man.

Do you blow sincere kisses to mistresses

Secrets in afternoons?

Do you wear your disguisesfeign the surprises

At the questions she asks when she dares to accuse?

Does your past lie under a dustsheet

In the corner of a musty garage?

That's where I keep minenow I'm a family man.

Are your horses still running when

The bookies shop close?

Is the band still togetherdid you ever

Get on the road?

We chased the same womenwe drank

The same beer.

We came as a pair when we ran around here

How are you these daysnow you're a family man?

Buy a drink for the boy in my place

At the end of the bar

Give my regards to ninaslam a tequila

I'll write you at christmas or I'll send you a card

And if you pass by you're welcome to drop in

And see me 'cos it's unlikely

I'll be round your way'cos I'm happy to be

Where I amliving life as a family man

Do you still have your leathers

Or did you give them away?

Do you still dream of joni and sidewalk cafes?

Is your norton still runningis the old man still alive?

Do you still get to dalkeithis your rent still as high?

But I suppose you've a mortgagenow you're a family man.

Dear friendit's been a longlong while

I've been meaning to write you

But it was never my style.

But what is these daysnow I'm a family man.
