Use A Friend

(album: Joy In The Morning - 2022)

I talked to your mother
She said you were leaving town
Guess that means you're running
Can I talk you into slowing down?
Give me the keys, I'm driving
We can shut off both our phones
Find a seat and dive in
Yeah, we can just start over

So, don't you worry
Where time is going
You don't gotta keep your composure
You can let out
The weight your holding
'Cause I'm right here

I swear
You never have to wonder if I care
Don't even need to say my name, I'm there
Whenever you could use a friend (Use a friend)
You know you could use me
I'll be something to believe in
Yeah, you'll see
Don't even need a reason to call me
Whenever you could use a friend (Use a friend)
You know you could use me, aye-yeah, yeah
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, yeah-oh)
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo)

We been ride-or-die since sixteen
I was half alive, didn't quit me
And now I see the tables turned
I'ma give the love you earned

So, don't you worry
Where time is going
You don't gotta keep your composure
You can let out
The weight your holding
'Cause I'm right here

(Oh) I swear
Ya never have to wonder if I care
Don't even need to say my name, I'm there
Whenever you could use a friend
You know you could use me
I'll be something to believe in
Yeah, you'll see
Don't even need a reason to call me
Whenever you could use a friend (Use a friend)
You know you could use me, aye-yeah, yeah
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo) You could use me
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo)

(Yeah) I see you reaching
You needed peace, you're falling to pieces
Feel like your drifting to sea
Don't wanna seize, you never got friends and you needed
And I hit your phone
Said you feel like you should hit the road
Oh, you gotta go, you gotta go
You wanna ride solo, but don't feel lonely, all alone
(Yeah) 'Cause I did that, I won't sit back
And your wall's up like get back, but I'm right here
And I'll kick back, I know you know
Real ones, you miss that
Love's hard, that's big facts
And it might hurt but I'll risk that

I swear
Ya never have to wonder if I care (I care)
Don't even need to say my name, I'm there (I'm there)
Whenever you could use a friend (Use a friend)
You know you could use me (You know you could use me)
'Cause I'll be something to believe in (Ooh)
Yeah, you'll see
Don't even need a reason to call me (Don't even need a reason)
Whenever you could use a friend (Oh)
You know you could use me, aye-yeah, yeah
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh)
You could use me
(Ooh-woo, ooh-woo)
You know you could use me, aye-yeah, yeah
