Friends Lyrics by Matchbox Twenty

Where the Light Goes

2023

[Intro]
Woah, woah
Oh-oh-oh, oh

[Verse 1]
Flower in the desert
Spring into the fall
Rushing to the West side
When the East sent out the call
Lessons in the matter
Of staying on your feet
You can fall under the weight of it
And it brings you to your knees

[Refrain]
But I am never giving in
I am, I am, I am, I am
Holding on for a feeling

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need no one to hold my place
You can’t take my thoughts
They're not your thoughts to take away
I don't need no one to tease my faith
I don’t need no one to celebrate

[Chorus]
'Cause all my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
Hey, all my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
Singing it out (Woah-ooh, woah-ooh)

[Verse 2]
Devil in the blue sky
Angel in the deep
Writing out your best lines
And forgetting how to read it
Counting in the wrong time
Starting on the three
There's a rhythm to the way life goes
It can knock you out of key

[Refrain]
But I am starting to believe
I am, I am, I am, I am
Holding on for the real thing

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need no one to hold my place
You can't take my thoughts
They're not your thoughts to take away
I don't need no one to tease my faith
I don't need no one to celebrate

[Chorus]
’Cause all my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
Hey, all my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
So singing it out

[Post-Chorus]
So singing it out
Singing it out

[Chorus]
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh; all my friends, all my friends)
All my friends, all my friends are here (Woah-ooh; all my friends, all my friends)
Singing it out

[Outro: Jett Doucette-Zappa]
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
