[Verse 1]

They say you're brilliant, well you're still a friend of mine

They say they cannot grasp the vastness of your mind

They think you're hiding something they can find

Well I know your secrets and you're just a friend of mine

[Verse 2]

I hear you've moved into a green and gold estate

A river and a jetty and a watchman at the gate

I saw you yesterday in the shopping line

And I assured you you were still a friend of mine

[Verse 3]

I put my name on for an interview

I advertised that I was friends with you

I told them you were not a diamond they could mine

I told them you were just an old time friend of mine

[Pre-Chorus]

Of mine, mine, mine...

You're always working in your studio

I come to see you for a while, then go

Is this the only thing you think about?

You are the only thing I think about

[Chorus]

You are the only [x8]

You are the only thing I think about [x8]
