Perfect Friend

Don't go looking for a perfect friend
Cause I'm tired of being left instead
Secrets all grind you down
I never listen to a word I say
But I'm dying to get underway
In this silence I'll drown

I'd rather be here than there
And today I'll be here more than anywhere
I'd rather be here than there
In the shadow that we can share
And today I'll be me more than anyone else

Don't go looking for a perfect friend
Cause I'm tired of hanging by a thread
Speechless, thoughtless, and vain
I won't listen to my dizzy head
I can't see missing more than I attend
I missed you by miles all this time

I'd rather be here than there
And today I'll be here more than anywhere
I'd rather be here than there
In the shadow that we can share
And today I'll be me more than anyone else

So come on over and laugh with me
Come on out come over with me now

Don't go looking for a perfect friend
Cause I'm sick of spinning in my bed
And in my heart I've missed you by miles
All this time

I'd rather be here than there
And today I'll be here more than anywhere
I'd rather be here than there
In the shadow that we can share
And today I'll be me more than anyone else
