Friends (bonus Track) Lyrics - Singles - Lisa Left Eye Lopes

This one right here 

Goes out to everybody 

And it doesn't matter who you are 

'cause I know that everybody 

Has a friend (friend) 

What defines a friend 

The meaning where does it lie? 

In the mind 

In the money 

In the face 

In in the eyes 

In the days and the nights 

Well what is a friend 

Do you love it and leave it 

Again and again? 

Now our story begins 

Of two little friends 

You would've thought they were twins 

Would've thought they was kin 

Wouldn't think they could manage 

All the time they would spend 

For each other they'd fend 

For their friends till the end 

And their mothers know mothers 

Sisters know brothers 

Mothers know fathers 

Sons know their daughters 

Blood thicker than water 

If one had 50 cents 

They'd both have a quarter 

It only makes sense 

That destined love was in order 

They grew up together 

From pre-K to high school 

Winters in the snow 

Summers in the pool 

He's an athlete 

She's an actress 

But hormones would lead them to the mattress 

[Chorus] 

I thought you were my friend (friend) 

Together through thick and thin (friend) 

Like it we were 

All the things that we've been through 

I put so much trust in you 

Back then (friend) 

Now what kind of friend 

Could you have been 

Not furious just curious 

She saw himself fit 

Who better than a boy 

The girl grew up with 

How 'bout all the walks in the park 

On the phone all night 

Dreams like that she saw in plain sight 

To his friends he's urgin' 

The simple fact she's a virgin 

To her he'll be urgin' 

Sexually lets merge 

As you can see 

There's two different dreams 

Her thoughts are so pure 

His low as the floor 

She's lookin' 

He's gawkin' 

They're walkin' and talkin' 

About a new stage and phase 

That they should embark in 

So it came to that night 

No dinner no candlelight 

The female exhales 

Somethin' doesn't feel right 

She said it polite 

Honey please not tonight 

He didn't get in it 

So he got real malignant 

He hit her 

It hurt 

Her breath got suspended 

Then he looked at his work 

Not feelin' so splendid 

[Chorus] 

Their meeting had ended 

Feelin' offended 

He went and attended 

A counselin' session 

Now life is a lesson 

Full of questions 

Why we drown down 

Rather than manifestin' 

Went to his friend 

Right from the beginnin' 

With tears in his eyes 

Said I apologize 

She much obliged 

Made amends 

Once again 

They're friends to the end 

Yeah it was true love again 

As transparent as lens 

As apparent as kin 

What defines a friend 

Where does it lie 

In the mind 

In the money 

In the face 

In the eyes 

In the days and the nights 

What is a friend 

Do you love and leave it 

Again and again 

In the time 

In the sadness 

In the hurt 

In the pride 

It's the person dispersin' 

Through the hands of time 

[Chorus] 

Oh 

Oh oh 

I thought you were my friend 

What kind of friend? 

What kind of friend?
