Circle of Friends Lyrics by David Mallett

David Mallett

0

[Verse 1]
I've been drinkin' too hard and smokin' much more
There's a face and a memory behind every door
The life that you lead is the life that you choose
But the games that you're playin' are the games that I lose
[Chorus]
Now, there's no time for beginnings, no means to the end
And I'm outside your circle of friends
[Verse 2]
I went to this party, and everyone came
All the pretty young dancers with no faces or names
But the night soon was over, and the room seemed so bare
And I'm standin' here throwin' good-byes in the air
[Chorus]
And I feel like an oak tree that's caught in the wind
And my branches are too old to bend
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Now, there's a ghost in the hallway, and he sings an old song
Of a soldier and a maiden who's love was so strong
But he died in some battle far over the sea
And she walks by the waters and weeps quietly
[Chorus]
And it's the same old sad story of pain in the end
And I'm outside your circle of friends
There's no time for beginnings, no means to the end
And I'm outside your circle of friends
