Keaton Henson - About Sophie

She’s an unwelcome shudder on the worst of her days
And despite the bad moods, she won’t go away
She’s as stubborn as winter, and as kind as the sun
And she won’t freeze, or burn anyone
And most days she drives me home out of her way
And when I say drive safe, I mean it today

Cause I’m a tough luck friend
I recon she’ll stay with me till the end
And it means more than I pretend

Her car is like a sauna, made mostly of smoke
And it glides back to hers, most late nights like a ghost
And nothing is said unless it needs to be
I’ll watch a movie, she’ll fall asleep
She’s one of those who when you’re talking you’ll see
She’s really listening, to someone like me
And why would she listen to someone like me?

Cause I’m a tough shit friend
I recon she’ll stay with me until the end
And it means more than I pretend

And I know I’m awful, I can’t even cry
It’s about time I told her and looked in her eyes
You’re my best friend, I’ll love you 'till one of us dies
You’re my best friend, I’ll love you 'till one of us dies
You’re my best friend, I’ll love you 'till one of us dies
