Tom Cochrane - Friendly Advice lyrics

He says you want a brand new start

She says that we've grown apart

I know a thing or two I speak from the heart

Don't insult me with what your friends say

After all that we've been through

You'd owe that to me like I'd owe that to you

So go your own way and in time you'll see

Exactly who your best friend was

Your wise friends might say

This is how we survive

But I know in my own mind

Can't you see it's a clever disguise

This friendly advice

We'd come such a long long way

I don't give a damn baby what they say

Your mind is full of wonders and that's o.k.

Didn't mean to lay your dreams so low

And now you've made your choice

I believe in my heart I know you like nobody else

I know in my mind in time you'll see

Exactly who your real friend was

Friendly advice

And your jive friends might say

This is how we survive

But I know im my own mind

Can't you see it's a clever disguise

I saw a film just the other day

About two people who reminded me of us

It's funny in this age of illusion

It's hard to tell what's fact or fiction

Friendly advice

And your jive friends might say

This is how we survive

But I know in my own mind

Can't you see it's a clever disguise

That it's only friendly advice

And I hope that you'll see in time

Just who your best friend was baby
