"freinds and lovers" Bruce Cockburn

I was at a friends place and after chatting and being together for a while I got in the car and came home.
I thought about this for a while on that home trip and came to the conclusion that leaving my friends place was like moving from one person to another at a party.
You chat to so'n'so and when you have had enough of them, you move to someone different. Someone who you ;

• 1. felt more comfortable with
• 2. liked more
• 3. thought was more popular
• 4. owed you money
• 5. owed money to.

For whatever reason you left the party or person, they could very well be thinking the same or even worse;
"Thank god hes gone now I can ring such'n'such" or " ....

And I came to the conclusion that it was none of the above and yet all of the above. I am freinds with people greatly and really fell comfortable in their presence and I like them.

It was time to see my best friend and lover and partner and confidant and fighter and bitch , "but hey", what the heck I wanted to come to the thing I love the most.

When I work away from home, even for the one night, I count the kms/miles between each town and the towns getting closer to home and I think of the love I have waiting for me at home, (apart from the sex) my soul mate.
