about

A friend in a bar like the one I met is a friend everyone should have in life. It started with her filling my glass and it ended up with me learning how to face myself. This song closes the album but opens the doors to the future. Whatever I will do next, this will be the starting point.

lyrics

I will do me no harm anymore
I feel complete and one even when I fall apart

I won’t lose myself in you, not at all
It’s not too late
since it’s me who crops my fate

And I’m not taking for granted anymore
All those little big things I thought I could control

I trust the sound of my own guitar
Though it won’t help me with starving
One thing to learn yet, it’s about how to be alone, but he-he-hey!


I will roll over this night that’s colder when you’re sober
I’ve got a friend in a bar
She taught me the art of dealing with myself

I won’t be that impatient anymore
The wiser way to get it sometimes is letting go

I have no one to blame anymore
I’m sick and tired of killing someone else’s hope

If you ask me the reasons for this strain
It’s pretty clear to me you haven’t had much pain

I went to town, the world was spinning ‘round
And I was special and charming
One thing to learn yet, and it’s about how to be alone, he-he-hey!

I will roll over this night that’s colder if you’re sober
I’ve got a friend in a bar
She taught me the art of dealing with myself
