Family Feels Like Friendship 1

Song about family and the laughs they share... ‪@RichardPoile63‬ [Verse 1] I walked through the door, no need to pretend Laughing like old friends, right from the beginning again Louise beside me, her smile said, “You’ll fit right in” And I knew this was family, not just blood or kin The jokes started flying, the stories ran wild They welcomed me in with a grin like a child No awkward small talk, no waiting around Just a room full of laughter and a brand-new home found [Pre-Chorus] One night, one table, one feeling so true Somehow I’d known them before I ever knew you [Chorus] We clicked from the start, every laugh brings us closer Whenever we see them, we come back recharged They lift up the room, make the hard days feel lighter With hearts full of humour and voices turned higher Frank’s a proud Scouser with a wicked sharp grin And I’ve got the same trouble brewing within They’re more than in-laws, they’re friends from the start Every laugh brings us closer, straight into the heart [Verse 2] Down at the supermarket, Chris watched the scene I threw a full tantrum like a two-year-old queen I pointed at nothing, I stomped down the aisle The shoppers looked shocked, but she cracked a smile Her face went red, then her laughter broke through She said, “You’re a strange one,” and I said, “That’ll do!” A cheeky little moment, ridiculous and true That’s when I knew, Chris, I was family with you [Pre-Chorus] No perfect performance, no polished disguise Just tears from the laughter in both of our eyes [Chorus] We clicked from the start, every laugh brings us closer Whenever we see them, we come back recharged They lift up the room, make the hard days feel lighter With hearts full of humour and voices turned higher Frank’s a proud Scouser with a wicked sharp grin And I’ve got the same trouble brewing within They’re more than in-laws, they’re friends from the start Every laugh brings us closer, straight into the heart [Verse 3] Frank at the pool table, he racks up the balls I line up my shot like I’m ten feet tall I miss by a mile, and he starts to grin “Is that all you’ve got?” Let the banter begin Pint in his hand, and a glint in his eye He talks like a champion, though I’m not sure why Two mates trading fire, no hard feelings at all He wins every frame, but I’m coming back for the call [Bridge] Every visit feels like a spark They lift us up when life gets dark Four hearts beating, laughter loud We found our people, and we’re damn well proud [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] We clicked from the start, no need to pretend They’re more than my in-laws, they’re my best friends Whenever we see them, we come back alive With a little more laughter and a reason to thrive Frank’s still winning, but I’ll play again Chris is still laughing like family and friend Louise by my side, and the whole room sings Love and friendship can outlast everything [Outro] We clicked from the start, and we’ll never let go Every laugh brings us closer wherever we go Frank, Chris, Louise, raise a glass to the crew Family feels like friendship when it’s people like you
