His trials now are over no more crosses to bear No more excuses bout the way he wears his hair They try to tell me he's free now and his mem'ry will live on Well if dying sets you free he's free but to me he's just gone Cause he is no Jesus he will not rise again Three days after we lay him down cause life's all over for him There'll be no more tomorrows no happiness and sorrows no hellos or goodbyes Cause he is no Jesus just a friend of mine We didn't always understand each other but at least we always tried We just heard different drummers and sometimes the drummer lied We were gonna be friends forever but forever is not a very long time Cause he is no Jesus just a friend of mine Cause he is no Jesus... No mother's love no best friend's cry can wake him up to say goodbye Cause he he is no Jesus just a friend of mine
