Mutual Friend

Call me if you need a ride

I can pick you up tonight, say at nine

I don’t know, though, where you live

Is your address safe to give away?

Because I know that I don’t know you

I know that I don’t know you

You’d not spot me in a crowd

You’d not hear me screaming loud, “hey”

And I’ve not heard you on the phone

What’s your voice like, what’s it’s tone, anyway?

Because I know that I don’t know you

I know that I don’t know you

But, Helen is our mutual friend

Have you heard from her lately?

Helen is our mutual friend

If you see her say “hey” for me

I can feel your warmth at night

Though I‘ve never held you tight, lay with me

“Hey”, I want you by my side

As my teacher, as my guide, what do you say?

Because I know that I don’t know you

I know that I don’t know you
