No Ordinary Friend

(album: Underneath The Roses - 2023)

You are more than just an ordinary friend you are
Someone I can turn to
When my life has been so hard
You are more than just an ordinary friend you see
Things that no one else
Will ever see again in me
No ordinary friend
No ordinary friend

I've been down on my luck
Restless feeling stuck
In this digital world
Filled with dollars and girls
I've been up in my head
Laying awake in my bed
In this virtual space
Trying to find my place
Is anybody having any fun
Everybody's looking for someone

You are more than just an ordinary friend you are
Someone I can turn to
When my life has been so hard
You are more than just an ordinary friend you see
Things that no one else
Will ever see again in me
No ordinary friend
No ordinary friend

I made a deal with myself
After walking through hell
To keep my hands inside
At all times on the ride
I made a deal with life
To make my best friend my wife
And it's playing well
Like Lionel
Anybody's welcome to that route
But first they have to walk through shame and doubt

You are more than just an ordinary friend you are
Someone I can turn to
When my life has been so hard
You are more than just an ordinary friend you see
Things that no one else
Will ever see again in me
No ordinary friend
No ordinary friend
No ordinary friend
