Secret Best Friend

The real world, if you’ll call it that,
Is not the place for me
Somehow it manages
To be both boring and scary
Everyone must need someone
To get them through the day
When the days are dull as this
I need to see you right away
Where are you when I need you,
My secret best friend?
Spend the whole day passing notes
On confidential letterhead
And when I see you
My joy has no end
Till you go away again
Till you go away again
Till you go away again
Till you go away again
I don’t see too much of you
But always keep in touch
I’m always checking in with you
Especially when I’ve had too much to drink
I always think of you
When I hear my favorite songs
Come and meet me out tonight
It feels like it’s been so long
Where are you when I need you,
My secret best friend?
Spend the whole day passing notes
On confidential letterhead
And when I see you
My joy has no end
Till you go away again
Till you go away again
Till you go away again
Till you go; away we go again
