Friend Out In The Madness Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

I am not a child, though you'll treat me as you've always seen me 

You never saw the changes in a heart grown old and wise 

Hey, it's good to see you smile, it's been so long between the pages 

Wheels out on the highway seem to laugh between my lines 

Do you still want to know? 

Where does the love go when it dies? 

Hey, I want you to know 

That love never dies, it is sheltered here very safe inside 

And it's left you with a friend out in the madness 

And you say you love me still 

How your soul does change and your heart still ponders 

How I could grow fonder of a life out on my own 

I still sing the harmony 

I'll have another wine and toast this madness 

I'll howl at your moon on my way home alone 

Do you still want to know? 

Where does the love go when it dies? 

Hey, I want you to know 

That love never dies, it is sheltered here very safe inside 

And it's left you with a friend out in the madness 

Do you still want to know? 

Where does the love go when it dies? 

Hey, I want you to know 

That love never dies, it is sheltered here very safe inside 

And it's left you with a friend out in the madness
