I'll need time to get you off my mind and I may sometimes bother you try to be in touch with you even ask too much of you from time to time. Now and then Lord, you know I'll need a friend till I get used to losing you let me keep on using you till I can make it on my own. I'll get by but no matter how I try there'll be times you know I'll call chances are, my tears will fall and I'll have no pride at all from time to time. But they say oh, there'll be a brighter day but till then I lean on you that's all I mean to do till I can make it on my own. Surely, someday I'll look up and see the morning sun without another lonely night behind me then I'll know I'm over you and all my crying's done no more hurting memories can find me. But till then ... Lord, you know, I'm gonna need a friend till I get used to losing you ...
