"Beautiful Friend" lyrics - THE UNDERTONES

Here comes a strangest reflection
Throwing her shadow on the wall
Breaking down all my defences
The distance is nowhere at all

Beautiful friend
Beautiful friend

Looking at pictures in a mirror
Carpeting faces never stop
Reflecting a European stranger
Fighting the fire from the top

Beautiful friend
Beautiful friend

I've had enough from temptation
Strung up like a fox on the wheel
Broken in so many places
The alternative's really unreal

Beautiful friend (beautiful friend)
Beautiful friend (beautiful friend)
Such a beautiful friend
