Lyrics

Go

Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh

Every once in a while
Honey
Let your love show
Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself show
Nobody gets hurt
No, no
Ooh, ooh
Nobody gets hurt

Well
We came here as two
We laid down as one
I don’t care
If I’m not your only
What I see in you
You see in me
But if I be wrong
Smoke my smoke
Drink my wine
Bury
My snakeskin boots
Somewhere
I’ll never find
Still be
Your lover baby

Oo, oo, oo

Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh ooh
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bruce_springsteen/always_a_friend.html ]
Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself go
Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself show

Nobody gets hurt
No, no
Ooh ooh
Nobody gets hurt

Well
I could be
An astronaut
On the wrong side
Of the moon
Or wrapped up
Like a baby
On a bus under you
Wherever I go
You go with me
But if I do you wrong
Take the master suite
I’ll take the floor
Sleep in late
Get some rest
I’ll get mine
Still be
Your lover baby

Oo, oo, oo

Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?

Every once in a while
Honey
Let your love show
Every once in a while
Honey let yourself
Go
Nobody gets hurt
It’s only love
Love, love
Oo, oo, oo

Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
Wasn’t I always
A friend to you?
