lyrics

On your way to your destination
So many folks can become distractions
In your life they try to join the ride
But they're not real
It may be hard to see through their smile
Sometimes they call but there's no extra mile
That they'll go, oh no, deep down, you know
That they're untrue to you

(But I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(No I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(When the) problems arise they put up both their hands
(And I) can't miss a friend
Tell ya that I ain't eva had it's a shame

Heeeeeeeeeeeeee

When you go out the refuse to pay
Then have the nerve to steal from right in front of your face
What possessed this mess to cause distress in my life?
Walk to the right, don't ignore the sign
Walk to the left, child you know that it's time
To let them release the hold on your soul
Ya gotta make room for somebody else

(But I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(No I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(When the) problems arise they put up both their hands
(And I) can't miss a friend
Tell ya that I ain't eva had it's a shame
'Who is for me let's me know who is not let 'em go"

(But I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(No I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(When the) problems arise they put up both their hands
(And I) can't miss a friend
Tell ya that I ain't eva had it's a shame
'Who is for me let's me know who is not let 'em go"

-Sax solo-

(But I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(No I) can't miss a friend that I ain't ever had
(When the) problems arise they put up both their hands
(And I) can't miss a friend
Tell ya that I ain't eva had it's a shame
'Who is for me let's me know who is not let 'em go" (3x)



"I can't miss a friend, I can't miss a friend, I can't miss a friend" (3x)
