gary numan - are 'friends' electric? (live 1979) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s cold outside
and the paint’s peeling off of my walls
there’s a man outside
in a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette

[verse 2]
now the light fades out
and i wonder what i’m doing
in a room like this
there’s a knock on the door
and just for a second i thought
i remembered you

[verse 3]
so now i’m alone
now i can think for myself
about little deals and issues
and things that i just don’t understand
a white lie that night
or a sly touch at times
i don’t think it meant anything to you

[verse 4]
so i open the door
it’s the ‘friend’ that i’d left in the hallway
‘please sit down’
a candlelit shadow on a wall near the bed

[verse 5]
you know i hate to ask
but are ‘friends’ electric?
only mine’s broke down
and now i’ve no one to love

[verse 6]
so i found out your reasons
for the phone calls and smiles
and it hurts
and i’m lonely
and i should never have tried
and i missed you tonight
so it’s time to leave
you see it meant everything to me

[outro]
thank you
