[Verse 1] Turning towards a time so free Justice has finally escaped The dripping words of yesterday Set my feeble mind astray [Verse 2] I yearn to see The glow of her eyes as I appear A sign of satisfaction Could be the sweetest sound The staircase has one too many steps I've already started back down Come on [Verse 3] I love the caterpillars Munching on the leaves Pitter patter Makes me forget my disease Bugs have feelers just like me And I'm feeling oh so lonely [Verse 4] Disturbed in every sense of grace The lady wouldn't give me a taste
Of the joy that means that much It lives within her touch [Chorus] Why won't you be my friend I would love to hold you tonight Even if we just pretend Why won't you be my friend Why [Chorus] Why won't you be my friend I would love to hold you tonight Even if we just pretend Why won't you be my friend Be my friend [Verse 5] I'd love to meet the one Who broke my heart I know she'd melt me with her dance Her subtle colors, her sweet smile But it's a shame She'll never get that chance
