Friend of a Friend Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you hear it?
There's someone behind the wall making the same sounds
Can you hear it?
It sounds like you and me when we’re making love
Who is it?
You said you wish they weren't taking such a long time

[Pre-Chorus]
She was my neighbour when we were thirteen
She moved back in
There's not much between us now
Do you know what I mean?

[Chorus]
She’s only a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend
She's never home 'cause she plays in a band
I don't know if you'd understand
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend
I had a dream that she walked through the door
I can't recall her name anymore
Please believe me, I'm your man
She’s only a friend of a friend of a friend

[Post-Chorus]
(I’m only a friend)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Can you feel it?
There's someone sliding up and down the ceiling
Breathing, he is synchronizing with her beating heart
(With her beating heart)

[Pre-Chorus]
She was my neighbour when we were thirteen
She moved back in
There’s not much between us now
Do you know what I mean?

[Chorus]
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend
She's never home 'cause she plays in a band
I don’t know if you'd understand
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend
I had a dream that she walked through the door
I can't recall her name anymore
Please believe me, I'm your man
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend

[Post-Chorus]
(I'm only a friend)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
(I'm only a friend)
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
She's only a friend

[Chorus]
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend
She's never home 'cause she plays in a band
I don't know if you'd understand
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend
I had a dream that she walked through the door
I can't recall her name anymore
Please believe me, I'm your man
She's only a friend of a friend of a friend
