The Hooters - You Never Know Who Your Friends Are lyrics

rate me

Beneath the skies of Disneyland

In the place where I grew up

I learned to think that the man I was

Was just not good enough

Funny how the road can lead

Away from all the ones you need

You never know who your friends are

I set out on my mission boat

To a place called anywhere

I offered my confession up

To a priest without a prayer

And as all hope was fadin'

I heard you calling from afar

You never know who your friends are

Sometimes you may find them

Like a wolf in sheep's disguise

Sometimes they're just hiding

Right before your very eyes

I thought that I was sinking but

I found myself afloat

And then I started thinkin', man

That's a whale that ain't no boat

And in the words of Jonah

Which now I holed in high regard

You never know who your friends are

Sometimes you may find them...

You can chase the far horizon

Trying to be someone you're not

You can spend your whole life

Searching for what you've already got

Funny how the road can lead

Back to all the ones you need

You never know who your friends are

You never know who your friends are
