Friend - Enemy lyrics

Don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means to me 
don't use that word friend with me 
if you really are my enemy 
don't speak the word so solemnly 
speaking it with enmity 

don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means 

it was underneath an apple tree 
i roused you on your mother's knee 
and you rose to kiss and say to me 
all those secret words you made for me 
in earnest wonder I did stray 
into you and far away 
the hips that sing and a heart that rings 
are calling to me every day 

so don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means to me 
don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means 

i walked you past the violinists 
and told you all my favourite things 
and tripped so soft and steadily 
one constant step ahead of me 
you placed a seal upon my heart 
and you slowly pulled us both apart 
and the end came slow and achingly 
and there was one for you and one for me 

so don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means to me 
don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means 

you gave me cause beneath the pines 
pulling yourself complete in line 
and what a wonder you turned out to be 
when you told me you would wait for me 
but I found you out through black and look 
on a path I very seldom took 
and you were sworn to secrecy 
the lover of my enemy 

so don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means to me 
don't use that word friend with me 
if you don't know what it means
