Brandi Carlile
Be My Friend
[Verse 1]
No thanks will come
No thanks will come your way
When you’re living in the center
Of a circle made to break

[Pre-Chorus]
Until you find the one that always knew your name
Someone who loves you even if they feel your pain
Will be there for you

[Chorus]
Won’t you be my friend
Out in the rain?
Won’t you be my friend
Out on a rainy day?

[Verse 2]
No medal will adorn you
No fanfare will salute your fame
Even if you’re always smiling
Like you mean no harm or shade

[Pre-Chorus]
Hoping someone remembers, nobody knows your name
The fires turn to ember but the memory remains
That you love me
[Chorus]
Won’t you be my friend
Out in the rain?
Won’t you be my friend
Out on a rainy day?

[Pre-Chorus]
Hoping when they go and say our children’s names
Hoping that humanity will save them from the grave
And so I ask you

[Chorus]
Won’t you be my friend
Out in the rain?
Won’t you be my friend
Out on a rainy day?

[Outro]
Won’t you be my friend
Out in the rain?
Won’t you be my friend
Out on a rainy day?
