lyrics

You know that time has got an awful hold on all of us
and outside Chicago's city streets are always changing
I can't imagine what you'd feel if you could see us now
but I hope that things would be the same

I tattoo'd your name into my skin so that you know I care
and I claim holy and unholy just to be safe
so I can travel miles in both directions just to hear your voice
so that when we meet I could sing with you
Yeah, that's the least thing I could do is sing with you

and I can count on all these friends that you had shared with me
and I shook your fathers hand and promised that I'd be there
now late night hours turn to years and I can't find myself
it's not hard to be invisible
but it's time to be incredible

because we could end up nothing but a dead friend

and we use to sing about shoes of gold
and the greatest friend you'll never know

but we could end up nothing but a dead friend
