"My Friends" lyrics

"My Friends"

My best friend said to me
I haven't heard from you, recently
Mama's getting older now, gotta slow down time, somehow
Last night I was terrified, nearly died at 25
I wasn't scared of losing life, just the people I loved
Leaving them behind

Driving fast with my friends
Do you remember when
Singing with the windows down
Why did they have to end?
Won't you be my brother, be my other
Be my everything
Won't you be my lover, be my other
Be my everything
'Cause I'll never let you down

My friends are older now
Got a kid and a car, living out of town
Feels like I never grew up like Peter Pan, still kicking around
Last night I was ready to stop, taking my guitar to the pawn shop
I wasn't scared of losing songs, but the way I felt
When you sing along

Driving fast with my friends
Do you remember when
Singing with the windows down
Why did they have to end?
Won't you be my brother, be my other
Be my everything
Won't you be my lover, be my other
Be my everything

Driving fast with my friends
Do you remember when
Singing with the windows down
Why did they have to end?
Won't you be my brother, be my other
Be my everything
Won't you be my lover, be my other
Be my everything
'Cause I'll never let you down
