Lyrics Laura Veirs

Laura Veirs

Motorcycle Man

You had to go off Mr. Motorcycle Man into the blacktop sunrise

Waterproof guitar strapped to your back

A dewy look in your blue eyes

You said it's so rock n' roll, I said I know

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I only knew you for one short night

But that was enough to hook me in

You said food and music is all you need and I agreed

But now you're gone and it's the end

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

It seems so easy to just ride yourself away

It seems so easy to just let the music play and get the hell out of the way

So easy for the sapphire on fire to be rough around the edges and so wild

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend

I wish you were my friend
