Friends

(Sandy Denny)
I've watched you rise up
And I've watched you fall down
Till you've lost everything
But what money can own
And you feel alright now but for how long?
Feel alright now, how long?
Do me a favour stay away from my door
I could use some good company
But I don't care for yours
No more pageants, no more
No more pageants, no more
I find your words empty and you know, as a rule
To you I have purposefully never been cruel
But you waste my time now, such fools
You waste my time now, such fools
My love is not here, my love is away
You've caught me alone but you've nothing to say
And it's time to leave now and you know the way
And it's time to leave and you know the way
Go and live in the country
And I'll stay in the town
I have everything but what money can own
And I'll be just fine now, so long
I'll be just fine now, so long
