The Frames - Friend / Enemy lyrics
rate me
Don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means to me don't use that word friend with me if you really are my enemy don't speak the word so solemnly speaking it with enmity don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means it was underneath an apple tree i roused you on your mother's knee and you rose to kiss and say to me all those secret words you made for me in earnest wonder I did stray into you and far away the hips that sing and a heart that rings are calling to me every day so don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means to me don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means i walked you past the violinists and told you all my favourite things and tripped so soft and steadily one constant step ahead of me you placed a seal upon my heart and you slowly pulled us both apart and the end came slow and achingly and there was one for you and one for me so don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means to me don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means you gave me cause beneath the pines pulling yourself complete in line and what a wonder you turned out to be when you told me you would wait for me but I found you out through black and look on a path I very seldom took and you were sworn to secrecy the lover of my enemy so don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means to me don't use that word friend with me if you don't know what it means
