Maude Lyrics by Sheila and the Insects

Flowerfish

2005

[Verse 1]
Let me hold your hand again, just once again
Can you believe it
Its been seven years since I have had a friend
Look into my eyes and see the fading light of memories
Of half-forgotten smiles beneath your summer skies

[Verse 2]
Let me sing this song again, just once again
Can I remember well
The lines I wrote before I chose to end
The sadness in my smiles and oft-repeated jokes
Remembering the times I spent alone and with myself and I

[Refrain]
I don't need many friends
Just real ones few
Just like you

[Verse 3]
So tell me more I beg of you, a tale or two
The years that passed you by
Have they been as pale as my sad lullabies?
Vaguely I recall amidst the noise and all a memory
Of half-remembered jokes and fading stories tall

[Verse 4]
I don't need another friend whose just a friend
I can depend on to
Abandon me for seven years again
Look into my eyes and see the fading light of memories
Of half-forgotten lies beneath your winter skies

[Refrain]
I don't need many friends
Just real ones few
How much have you changed since then
Or are you still you

[Outro]
Just like you
Just like you
(You're just a friend, you're just a friend...)
Just a friend
Just like you
