you've got a friend
Indigo Girls

Yes it's true I've gotten very moody over you

Don't think I don't sense your caution way across the room

Or across the phone lines, big black ocean, conversation brief

We can't find a clear connection and I can't get relief

Why don't we both agree?

We're both afraid and too afraid to say

If I say count to three and move toward me

Would you meet me half the way? (Would you meet me)

There are a thousand things about me

I want only you to know

But I can't go there alone

You've got to show

While you occupy me, I command my dreams each day

To bring you in me even thinly as the mornin' chases you away

I half believe if I just picture us we will come true

Wishful thinkin' or my hope's sinkin' half depends on you

Why don't we both agree?

We're both afraid and too afraid to say

If I said count to three and move toward me

Would you meet me half the way? (Would you meet me)

There are a thousand things about me

I want only you to know

But I can't go there alone

You've got to show me

Show me you are fully alive

If you want to fly you take this dive

If you want to kiss, kiss for real

I'll give you back everything you feel

Drive in space that peaceful place, you'd be my secret sharer

Front and back and all around the thin margin of error

I move too fast or move too slow or somewhere in between

But navigate your perfect distance, your getaway is clean

Why don't we both agree?

That we're both afraid and too afraid to say

If I say count to three and move toward me

Would you meet me half the way?

'Cause there are a thousand things about me

I want only you to know

I want only you to know

I want only you to know

But I can't go there alone

You've got to show
