Good Friends Lyrics - Singles - Mitchell Joni

I have to come and see you-- 

Maybe once or twice a year-- 

I think nothing would suit me better 

(Right now) 

Than some downtown atmosphere ... 

In the dance halls and the galleries 

Or betting in the OTB 

Synchronized--like magic 

Good friends you and me 

The sun goes down in Jersey 

Rises over Little Italy-- 

We could talk it up 'til the block gets up 

Swapping stories 

Sitting around in some all night zoo 

Watching it run like a movie 

Synchronized--like magic 

Good friends you and me 

No hearts of gold 

No nerves of steel 

No blame for what we can and cannot feel 

But now it's cloak and dagger 

Walk on eggshells and analyze 

Every particle of difference 

Gets like mountains in our eyes 

You say, "You're unscrupulous!" 

You say, "You're naive!" 

Synchronized--like magic 

Good friends you and me 

No hearts of gold 

No nerves of steel 

No blame for what we can and cannot feel 

Sometimes change comes at you 

Like a broadside accident 

There is chaos to the order 

Random things you can't prevent 

There could be trouble around the corner 

There could be beauty down the street 

Synchronized--like magic 

Good friends you and me 

No hearts of gold 

No nerves of steel 

No blame for what we can and cannot feel 

No nerves of steel 

No hearts of gold 

No blame for what we can and can't control 

Good friends you and me 

Good friends you and me
