HERE'S TO YOU

i don't take well to strangers
you didn't need another casual friend
we talked music, we talked movies
over my beer and your gin
for some reason i impressed you
i thought you were older, too
we thought we had a lot in common
strangers usually do
it wasn't true
here's to you

it's a bond not easy to come by
between friends it needn't be explained
some call fate, some call it a love
call when you're caught in the rain
we called each other buddy
we'd talked the whole night through
it's not often a man's allowed to cry
but i feel i can with you
sometimes i do
here's to you

but the climate here doesn't suit me
i've got wings and i must fly
i don't care much for this city
but i hate to say goodbye

i don't take well to stangers
you're all i leave behind
should it be so hard to let go
of what we never expected to find
let's say adieu
here's to you
