"Where Are My Friends?" lyrics - TEDESCHI TRUCKS BAND

Where are my friends? Now my lover's gone
Did they step out of rhythm for some other song?
You should be here with me

Where are my friends? Is it my concern?
Did they catch some wild wisdom I could never learn?
I want to get back to the general pop, I loved a few people but not a lot
Anyhow, I'm ready now

[Chorus:]
At the heart of the matter
At the heart of the matter

Where are my friends? They were never me
Never went full-sail against the enemy
Dying for love and cracking up wise, tearing them down with those sun-shot eyes
Anyway, I'm here today

[Chorus:]
At the heart of the matter
At the heart of the matter

[Instrumental break]

Where are my friends? Somewhere up the trail?
Where the wind gets wild and reason fails
Stumbling blind and half-awake, calling my name, oh for mercy's sake
You should be here with me

[Chorus:]
At the heart of the matter
At the heart of the matter
At the heart of the matter
At the heart of the matter
