new york isle/wasn't mine
was it me/or just my kind
spinning softly/and talking cheap
cause there's no place left to be
but a road that just goes on
to every leaving town
friends as lovers
and lovers as friends

shall we dance/into the night
as the jukebox moans/and pours us tight
friends and lovers
and lovers and friends
cause there's no place left to be
than wrapped around you now
in every passing town
us as lovers/and us as friends

there's no prayer/by a dashboard light
flagging goals/and blowing signs
cause they say/you are the one
and there's no place left to be
than where you stand right now
i walk these leaving towns
friends as lovers
and lovers as friends

to your back/i speak aloud
to your face/i'm only proud
we're friends with lovers
and lovers with friends

darling boy (she says)
you're on my mind (she says)
i feel your skin (she says)
as if it's mine (she says)
this pain is sweet/too sweet to touch
and there's no place left to be
than the shadow of your life
in everyone passing town
friends and lovers
and lovers as friends
