The Ones We Seek

The one I seek
When I'm in trouble once again
The one I've known a lifetime
The one I call my friend
The kind of bastard
That would tell me to my face
When I've had enough and it's time to go
And puts me in my place

If the skies come tumbling overhead
And I don't have you beside me anymore
Close a book, shut my eyes, I go to bed
Remembering the good times
And don't cry about the sad

When the day breaks
Because it could not safely land
Then I call upon the one
That doesn't dress up or pretend
There's too much value
Put on people and their fame
Living in this cardboard world
With plastic as a name

If the skies come tumbling overhead
And I don't have you beside me anymore
Close a book, shut my eyes, I go to bed
Remembering the good times
And don't cry about the sad, no

Cause if the skies, they come tumbling overhead
And I don't have you beside me anymore
Close a book, shut my eyes, I go to bed
Remembering the good times
And don't whine, don't whine about the sad

If the skies, they come tumbling overhead
And I don't have you beside me anymore
Close a book, shut my eyes, I go to bed
Remembering the good times
And don't whine about, don't whine about the sad

Cause if the skies, they're tumbling (Cause if the skies come tumbling overhead)
Go out, abide and have a drink (Don't have you beside me anymore)
Before there's nothing anymore, oh no
I close a book, I shut my eyes (I close a book, I shut my eyes, I go to bed)
I spill my guts, won't tell you lies (Remembering the good times, don't cry)
I'm begging you please

The one I seek
When I'm in trouble once again
The one I've known a lifetime
The one I call my friend
