Counting Crows - All My Friend Lyrics

Send "All My Friend" ringtone to your cell

Thought I might get a rocket ride

When I was a child but it was a lie

That I told myself when I needed something good

At seventeen had a better dream.

Now I'm thirty-three and it isn't me

But I'd think of something better if I could

All my friends and lovers leave me behind

I'm still looking for a girl

One way or another

I'm just hoping to find a way

To put my feet out in the world

Caught some grief from a falling leaf

As she tumbled down to the dirty ground

Said I should have put her back there if I could

But everyone needs a better day

And I'm trying to find me a better way

To get from the things I do to the things I should

All my friends and lovers leave me alone

To try to have a little fun

One way or another I just wish I had known

To go out walking in the sun

And find out if you were the one

Does it make you wanna come a little closer now?

And did you wanna dance with me?

Did you wanna hum a little harder now?

Can you see her waiting there?

Can you see her? Because I'm almost there

Can you see her waiting there for someone like me?

All you want is a beauty queen

Not a superstar but everybody's dream machine

All you want is a place to lay your head

You go to sleep dreaming how you would

Be a different kind if you thought you could

But you come awake the way you are instead

All my friends and lovers shine like the sun

I just turn and walk away

One way or another

I'm not coming undone

I'm just waiting for the day
