about

This song came out of a book that Glenn was reading @ the time aptly called 'My Beautiful Friend' by Brisbane author Venero Armando.

We both love this song.

lyrics

My Beautiful Friend. (Bidmead/ Buchanan).

You walk in the silence
You breathe in the night again
You’re talking in halos
You just close your eyes and pretend

You’re dancing with angels
Who show you the future and the past

My beautiful friend where have you gone
You’ve kept me here waiting for so long
And everything changes right or wrong
But still you’re gone gone gone

You creep in the back door
And look through the windows of my soul
You’re talking in numbers
Yeah you always need to take control
I can’t help but wonder
Just how it would feel out of this cold

You bathe in the slumber
And fill up the spaces in my head

My beautiful friend where have you gone
I’ve been here waiting for far too long
And everything changes right or wrong
But still you’re gone gone gone

Feel like I’m losing
My whole world is falling down
So far from you and
All I can do is call your name
