《For A Friend》歌词

[00:00:00] For a friend (为了一个朋友) - Phil Collins (菲尔·柯林斯)

[00:00:27] When I saw him last

[00:00:30] He had that look in his eyes

[00:00:34] I said "Do you need to talk "

[00:00:37] He said "No "

[00:00:41] So I called him up asked him again and I waited a while -

[00:00:48] He began to speak then he started to cry

[00:00:54] You know some things are best left unspoken

[00:01:02] And some things just never work out

[00:01:08] And sometimes seems you try and you try and whatever you do

[00:01:15] There's a fix that you're in and you just can't get out

[00:01:22] He said "I need your help I need it now

[00:01:29] Give me the strength to go on"

[00:01:46] Though I didn't know what

[00:01:49] I knew that something was wrong

[00:01:53] But he still had his pride

[00:01:55] He'd tell me in time

[00:02:00] Well this feeling inside

[00:02:03] Kept eating at me

[00:02:06] I was losing a friend and I had to know why

[00:02:13] When I heard the voice on the phone I knew it was bad news

[00:02:20] So I rushed to be by his side

[00:02:29] And we said goodbye for the last time

[00:02:34] I gently hugged him and kissed him goodbye

[00:02:41] He whispered "I need your help I need it now

[00:02:48] Give me the strength to go on "

[00:02:54] We were always laughing

[00:03:01] I just remember laughing mama

[00:03:08] We were always laughing

[00:03:15] Oh I need your help I need it now

[00:03:23] Give me the strength to go on

[00:03:43] Though as time goes by and it all becomes clear

[00:03:50] We can see the deceit we see the lies

[00:03:56] So I asked myself over and over and over again

[00:04:03] What did they know What did they hide

[00:04:11] Fools leading the innocent blindly

[00:04:17] Fools turning away

[00:04:24] And I know that

[00:04:26] When I think of my friend with that look in his eyes

[00:04:31] And if they told the truth he might be here today

[00:04:38] I need your help I need it now

[00:04:45] Just give me the strength to go on on

[00:04:54] I remember the laughing

[00:05:01] We were always laughing

[00:05:11] Oh no - it's just strength we need now

[00:05:21] Just the strength to go on
