When you came through the door
My hat was on the floor
I was going around the big wheel

Your sweet and lazy storm
Kept swirling around the room
And I was face down in the sugar bowl


But you have always been my best friend
Shallow and deep until the end

You have always been my best friend
Shallow and deep until the end


When you came on the scene
I was a child of mystery
With a tall hat on my head

Our foes were lean and mean
But we always stood a chance
In our hideaway noone would see


But you have always been my best friend
Shallow and deep until the end

You have always been my best friend
Shallow and deep until the end


And though our dreams are there for the taking
We can all see an angry star
Though our dreams are there for the taking

When you came to the door

I was never close at hand

And I had not a leg to stand
And I was never in demand I told you
You never did know when to laugh

Take a hike or take a bath
Always going around the big wheel


But you have always been my best friend
Shallow and deep until the end
You have always been my best friend

Thick and thin
You have always been my best friend.


And though our dreams are there for the taking
We can all see an angry star
Though our dreams are there for the taking

When you came to the door
Yeah, yeah.
