Imaginary Friends

Ron Sexsmith · Retriever [2004]

Imaginary friends

They will always let you down

And when all the good times end

You won't be seeing them around



For they run where the action is

And they'll cross you off their list

Do you comprehend now

To imaginary friends

You don't exist

No



They'll ask you where you've been

But never wait for your reply

They'll meet you when your ship comes in

But never meet you eye to eye



As all the friends who've been

Real and true

Wonder who you're talkin' to

One thing you can depend on

Imaginary friends

They can't see you

No



You can paint them a beautiul picture

But they won't understand

You can count all your friends

On the fingers

Of one scalded hand



Imaginary friends

They will always leave you hanging

And you won't see them again



For they've gone where the action is

And they've crossed you off their list

Do you comprehend now

Imaginary friends They don't exist

No



Imaginary friends

They don't exist

No



Imaginary friends

They don't exist

No no no
