Got this friend on the rackShe lost her love but she'd take him back
He gave the worldwhat it needs
Another girlon her knees
Shot her downpacked her off
Said they cut, from a different cloth
And now this painthat she owns
Feels like no one's ever known
You're a good kid, so I'll tell you
That very long agolived a story
Not unlike your own
She gave all that she had
Now that's not goodbut it isn't bad
Unless the one that you know
Will use it upthen let you go
She is misunderstood
Now that's not badbut it isn't good
Though after all, who can say
That's there's one specific way
On an island, in a channel
Very long agolived a story
Not unlike your own
You're a good kidso I'll tell you
There's something you should now
He was smilingwhen he let you go
