Friends And Lovers

I see her walking past my window
With milk in her hands for the friends that she's made
Got tears in her eyes for the days that have gone away

She remembers a handsome young man
And how he made her laugh
When they ran, ran, ran
And the way he touched so gently
His eyes were blue and strong and free
And they way he said "marry me, marry me"

And she remembers kissing after dark
And the way he smiled and played so wild
And the way her children laughed

And how she prayed her days would last forever
Cause she says her life was just her
Friends and lovers
Friends and lovers
Friends and lovers

I see her walking home
Same time same dress
She wonders when her life became this mess
She needs hello or how'd you do
She'll tell you her stories
How every word is true
She'll tell you every word is true
And she remembers kissing after dark
And the way he smiled and played so wild
And the way her children laughed
But now she prays her days won't last forever
Cos she says there's no life when you got no
Friends and lovers
Friends and lovers
