Jamie Scott - Song for a Friend Lyrics

Have you heard the news
They’ve been making plans for you, the game is over
Taillights of the plane are fading darker
And I bled for you
And the birds were humming songs that sound so minor
Something in the air that sounds like thunder
I heard you played a song
And the chords they just broke her heart so tired
To the depths no other gun has ever fired
And the ground it cried
As the water stole your dreams and drowned your fire
Tears like armour falling silent

And then you turn to her and hold her
And you tell her

If your eyes start crying
And your arms get weak
And you can’t see through the stars on a cloudy sky
Lift your love with courage
And your heart with love
When you’re walking on you own on a starry night
Looking up into the sky
When you can’t see my light
I’m walking by your side

And it’s the choir that lose
Music sounded so much brighter played by you
Now the crowd sits patient with their lighters
I used to like the blues
Cause they sound so far, and eased my mind
But now heaven’s a lot closer than I’d like

And then you turn to her and hold her
And you tell her

If your eyes start crying
And your arms get weak
And you can’t see through the stars on a cloudy sky
Lift your love with courage
And your heart with love
When you’re dancing in his arms on your wedding night
Looking up into the sky
When you can’t see my light
I’m dancing by your side
