Absent Friends

<p>Don't bend down in front of me It's more than I can take Don't brush the hair out of your face It's more than I can take</p><p>Here's to absent friends Who might never meet again Here's to you and I and everything</p><p>Try your best not to smile at me It's more than I can take Or stand in close proximity It's more than I can take</p><p>I had my life straight Before you came</p><p>And now I fail to sleep through the night I fail to sleep through the night I can't learn anything from everything that's happening</p><p>So don't give me things you once held Expect me still to breathe Don't go and get your hair cut nice And show it off to me</p><p>Here's to absent friends Who will never meet again Here's to you and I and everything</p><p>They'll hold a wake in the blasted night For the names of you and I Wide awake in the middle of the night For you and I</p><p>And now I fail to sleep through the night I fail to sleep through the night I can't learn anything from everything that's happening</p><p>It's more than I can take.</p>
