lyrics

Cherish every little word,
tie 'em up, keep'em safe
a teenage photograph of you
and you're still smiling
Modern life would get you down
it's better off you're not around
cos that old smile in that photograph
would have turned to a frown

But i believed that it would never end
and i could take
the death of a friend

Situation went awry
never got to say goodbye
but sitting there in your old room, you taught me how to play
spinning lights and open sky
wait for you to roll on by
I'm watching you dance away
and you're still smiling

But i believed that it would never end
and i could take
the death of a friend

Now we sit at that table
but you never showed up
Now we sit at that table
but you never show
Now we sit at that table
but you never showed up
no you never showed up

the death of a friend
