I gave my friends up for a girl
For intimacy they couldn’t really give
I immersed myself into her world
Forgoing the way I did once live
Aside from calls from this young girl
My phone remained silent and cold
No more did I get invited to go out
No longer would there be stories to be told
For the first few months I had it all
My heart was filled with hope and joys
Then I began to miss my drinking pals
And I yearned to be one of the boys
Although I should consider myself a lucky man
A beautiful woman now stood by my side
Without friends how can there be happiness
Would things be different if she were my bride?
So I decided without much fanfare
That I was too young to settle down
I said goodbye to that lovely girl
And called the boys to celebrate downtown
Now my phone rings all night long
My friends call whenever they are able
Though sex and love are now hit and miss
I always have friends gathered around my table
