I heard you threw your phone away   A brave attempt at dodging sympathy   And maybe you're right   Who needs checking up on anyway?   But I remember when I felt my worst   Its friends like you I called on first      The shadows of what seemed so sure   Haunt you as you tread alone   The empty house you bought with her   But even when you're torn apart   Worlds away I feel your pain   And carry you inside my heart      I will search my acquaintance   For a close-lipped friend   With strength and understanding   When I think Ive reached my end   I want to hear your voice again      And it would be so sad   If I learned you never even tried to call me up   But its not so bad   When you remember you've got friends to pick you up
