(browne/maitland/glenister) You have all you want Your shadow stands so tall You can't see over it And It's what you need There's no-one going to Stop you from believing it And so the game begins Watching the china spin Walking on gilded pins (Chorus) Become More than a mother's son Who jumped the blocks before the gun Disturbed the silent sun I know
Only a friend would know And though you think it just don't show Only a friend would notice Only a friend would know When you're getting down Remember all the things We used to dream about How you'd leave this town And be the only thing they'd talk about There's something to be said For laying down and playing dead Why don't you live instead (Chorus)
