Thought I could trust Her. I believed Her,

With a fervor like religion all these years.

Oh yes, I knew Her past was rocky,

But She'd sworn She'd moved beyond all her demons and her fears.

And I just wanted something to cling to –

Beyond geography and circumstance, a deeper meaning find.

Did she betray me? Or was I compliant?

Just another perfect mark her platitudes made blind?



CHORUS

Have you seen my friend? Have you seen my friend?

She's real rough around the edges, she's been banged up in the ditches,

But she's my friend, my real good friend

These days it seems like I don't know her,

Gotta find a way to show her, she's my friend.



What do I tell my kids about her?

Oh, I wish that they could see her through my eyes.

How will they know her? Not like I did.

Clean and shining for the world, like a star up in the sky,

Or was she ever really like that?

Oh, did she even have me fooled back then?

Did I take her gifts for granted,

Turn my back and let her slip away too easy in the end?



There's no denying she's still beautiful,

Would-be lovers flock to her every day…

But she turns them all away.
