Song lyrics

I have seen peace. I have seen pain

Resting on the shoulders of your name

Do you see the truth through all their lies?

Do you see the world through troubled eyes?

And if you want to talk about it anymore

Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder

I'm a friend


I have seen birth. I have seen death

Lived to see a lover's final breath

Do you see my guilt? Should I feel a fright?

Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?

And if you want to talk about it once again

On you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder

You're a friend


You and I have lived through many things

I'll hold on to your heart

I wouldn't cry for anything

But don't go tearing your life apart


I have seen fear. I have seen faith

Seen the look of anger on your face

And if you want to talk about what will be

Come and sit with me, and cry on my shoulder

I'm a friend

And if you want to talk about it anymore

Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder

Once again

Cry on my shoulder

I'm a friend
