Replicants - Are 'Friends' Electric? lyrics

rate me

It's cold outside<br />

And the paint's peeling off of my walls<br />

There's a man outside in a long coat<br />

Gray hat, smoking a cigarette<br />

<br />

Now, the light fades out and I'm wondering<br />

What I'm doing in a room like this<br />

There's a knock on the door and just for a second<br />

I thought, I remembered you<br />

<br />

So, now I'm alone<br />

Now, I can think for myself<br />

About little deals and S.U.'s<br />

And things that I just don't understand<br />

<br />

Like a white lie that night<br />

Or a slight touch at times<br />

I don't think it meant anything to you<br />

So, I open the door<br />

<br />

It's the friend that I'd left in the hallway<br />

I say, "Please sit down"<br />

A candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed<br />

You know I hate to ask but are friends electric?<br />

<br />

Mine's broke down and now I've no one to love<br />

So I find out your reason for the phone calls and smiles<br />

And it hurts and I'm lonely, and I should never have tried<br />

And I missed you tonight, so it's time to leave<br />

<br />

You see, it meant everything to me<br />

Mine's broke down and now I've no one to love<br />

Mine's broke down and now I've no one to love
