Real Good Friend - Greg Brown

I can’t say don’t go but i can’t say go

I can’t say stay we both know

We both know you’re going & we both know why

But i can’t say don’t go i can’t say goodbye

I can’t say hold me i wish i could

I’m feeling so cold & you’re looking so good

But it ain’t to be you got a good man

Ok god we’re gonna follow your plan

I can’t say come to me but i can’t say leave

One thing i can say i can say believe

Believe i’ll love you until the end

Long as i’m living you got a real good friend

I can’t say i’m happy but i ain’t too blue

I know i’m lucky to have a friend like you

We’ll share some laughter on that you can depend

Long as i’m living you got a real good friend
