Lyrics to
Good Friend

This version of Good Friend was released by Violent Femmes in 1986.

How I’d love you so
The way good friends do
The way I would be you
And me too, I’d be your
Good friend, I’d be your
Good friend, I’d be your
Good friend
That’s what I would’ve been
Oh but everytime I turn around
My heart’s on the mend
These feelings I have
I have to suspend
Seems like everytime I turn around
My heart’s on the mend
Because I don’t think you want me
To be your good friend
Yesterday is a laugh
And the traumas slip past
And I don’t think
That I’ll be doing a lot of crying
But I’ll sure do my share of sighing
I would have been your…
