about

Wiritten during lockdown. Friendships became even more important.

lyrics

Everybody needs a friend
Regardless of the time, but
Sometimes friendships call for more
Somewhere down the line

And if like me you crave a hug cos
They’re so scarce these days
Hold these words close to your heart to
Keep those blues at bay

You say you’re isolated
It’s twenty-four degrees
I’m staring out my window at the
Fog enshrouded trees

Everybody needs a friend
If only just to say
There’s someone here to talk to you
Though they’re so far away

No one to talk to, no one to see
Some days you go out of your mind
Keeping busy when there’s nobody there to
Share a little piece of your time

I see the birds migrating
Over the salty spray
Cables beneath the ocean take the
Words we need to say

Every-body needs a friend
Words to ease the pain
And if that’s all this friendship does
There’s no one here to blame

You say you’re isolated
It’s twenty-four degrees
I’m staring out my window at the
Fog enshrouded trees

And if that’s all this friendship does
There’s no one here to blame
And if that’s all this friendship does
There’s no one here to blame

Shy Face Troubadour Birmingham, UK

Shy Face Troubadour is a fresh project platform for my songs. Previous releases have been under my name Tony Willé (not the Dutch country artist of the same name).I am a troubadour, a little shy, but paradoxically, never more at home than playing an intimate venue where I can sneak a peek at your faces. ... more
