Martin Sexton - Friends Again lyrics

There's a wall gone up between us, ten feet tall and ten feet wide We can hear each other screaming, but can't see the other side And there's no getting over, and there's no breaking through Until you can accept my hand when I reach out to you I can't tell you how to live your life, I can't turn you into me I can't roll this rock back up that hill, I ain't got the energy So call me up when you get tired of pushing me away I just hope we can be friends again someday You can lead a horse to water, but you can't push him in I'm tired of fighting battles neither one ever wins The armor's getting heavy, and the quills have lost their point Won't you meet me for an orange soda down at Tommy's joint? I can't teach you how to chase your dreams I can't make the sun shine through the rain cloud you drag around I'll leave it up to you My love for you is oceans wide, that's all I want to say And I hope we can be friends again someday Chili dogs and milkshakes down at the little gem Fishing off the dock talkin' politics 'till 3am Long drives through the countryside, afternoons that never end It's all right here if we could just be friends again. I know I can't change anyone, I can only change myself But when the tidal wave of life rolls in I can only offer help. I don't know, some kind of compromise, maybe we could meet halfway I know we can be friends again I pray we can be friends again I hope we can be friends again someday.
