Carlton, Vanessa - Fairweather Friends Lyrics

this is the most underrated song in the world. Vanessa was so underrated & to this day it upsets me so much. So much talent.

You give such joy with your beautiful writing and singing!! I hope GOD blesses you with great happiness!

I love to sing and play on piano at the same time Vanessa songs like this one. Fairweather friend is simple to play and have good lyrics to listen to.

This song is sadddd

Esta canción tiene un toque especial, Vanessa Carlton es un talentazo, lástima que en su tiempo no le haya favorecido las redes sociales sino sería diferente con millones de visitas porque su música es demasiado buena, adoro a esta artista.

"Found your letter on a full moon Sunday night, some other girl in your spell casting plans for her life
Pour the vodka and it dulls sharp knives, breathe the words of diamonds on rings"
The lyrics are gorgeous.

Pour the vodka and it dulls sharp eyes.

How was this song not a hit, its such a beautiful song!??

the best

It's called "Fairweather Friend".

Roberto Lyrio Funny thing about that... I told VC during a meet and greet (I was massively startstruck) that my favorite song to play on the piano was Fairweather Friends and she goes "yeah, Fairweather Friend? I do too!"

hahaha Whoops

most underrated song!

I really love Vanessa's music. Incredibly unique.

most of her songs have weird endings.......BRILLIANT

Back to this multi-layered awesome pop song again. Love it.

+kevin cody me too.

My Favorite

Only 106.570 views. It's a shame!!!

+tarapia tapioca No shame at all. Dont compare artists that get lots of promotion with artists that dont get much. It is exactly what this song talks about, listen well!!!

What a song! Credits to Vanessa Carlton! True Artist!

The lyrics posted are the lyrics from when she first performed the song like 3 years before the album was released.  I fell in love with that first version, and had to adjust to hearing this version.  I will say however, now I am madly in love with this version!

Me too!! Exactly how I felt!

The exact same thing happened to me!!

This song rocks!

Where did you get these lyrics....multiple mistakes?.....she doesn't exactly sing all these words 

1 MORON NOW

This is my favourite off the album

So happy she released another album :D

wow i like it

your lyrics are so bad and WAY off!

Dispensa apresentações

sorry but the lyrics are way off

someone always does :'(

Someone just had to hate.... ._.

Funny how I like this song, but feel like I'm who she's singing about. A girl I always liked but live far away from me just found out I'm in a new relationship. We aren't together and never were, but we (are/were) very close. She ask me all about the relationship and says she's happy for me. But I feel sad about it.

Guess it's guilt because I always cared about her, but she never was there for me. Still love VC tho and I still like this song. The girl is a fairweather friend in the end. XD

Vanessa Carlton is an amazing singer. Her songs deserve way more popularity♥

stumbled across this searching for 'fairweather friends', cause my friends suck

<3 !!!!

@Dina Ghosh are you talking about the percussion introduction into the song? i like that too!

it's about a girl's struggle with a cheating boyfriend, she tries to forget about it and live through it... 'magical thinking gets us by' - but it doesn't last and she realises she cant forgive him. because he 'did it for the fame'.

These are the exact lyrics to her original version of the song. If you've listened to some of her other songs, when she performs them live, she often sings different lyrics EX Pretty Baby, Ordinary Day (Divide and conquer), etc. Sorry this is so late!

I am in love with Rabbits on the Run. It's been over a year since I bought the CD, and it's still sounding fresh as ever. Vanessa went IN on this album!

The worst part of this song is that when it ends I have to go back to reality.

i had i dream about visiting her at her apartment

Thanks for the helpful links at the end. :)

one of the most perfect albums ever made !!!.....

music video coming out soon! :D
can't wait for that one

zero dislikes, thats how it should be♥

I love how she sings the words " Believed it"

soo beautiful <3

The Argonauts escaped them because when he heard their song, Orpheus immediately realized the peril they were in. He took out his lyre and sang a song so clear and ringing that it drowned the sound of those lovely fatal voices. When on another journey the Odysseus' ship passed the Sirens, had the sailors stuff their ears with wax. He had himself tied to the mast for he wanted to hear their beautiful voices. The Sirens sang when they approached, their words even more enticing than the melody.

THANK YOU! for putting this up on youtube for all of us to enjoy! I appreciate it so much, even though the lyrics are wrong thank you at least taking the time to type out the lyrics for all the songs you have posted on here for people to use. I love reading along while I listen you make that possible. Thank you again, and if you wish I can retype the lyrics for you.

the piano hits me right in the chest so beautiful song never gets old x

awesome!

parts of the lyrics are wrong...

Real voice and real instruments...to be clear: real music!

You should change those lyrics to reflect the CORRECT lyrics from the lyrics insert she included with the CD - if you bothered to purchase it, you'd know this. :) Eek... that sounds rude. I'm just frustrated by the enormity of people messing up her words like this. Thanks for uploading this song, truly!

Fair weather friends..weather here is fine. Rabbits on the Run....

How's the weather? :)

story of my life

ps. this song is called fairweather friend. not friends. hahah just letting you know

the lyrics aren't exact

@snooperdoggy put "repeat" in front of .com and after youtube in the url and it puts the video on repeat!

WoW the music here is just...great! Feels sooo mature and sophisticated...but earthy and in tune with one's emotions! Here's to one identifiable success on this new album.

@KylesAndSmiles because these lyrics are the original lyrics

so youtube should add a repeat button to videos so i won't have to keep pressing play. Thumbs up if you agree!!

@KylesAndSmiles because she changed the lyrics several times before she released the album

Definitely going to the store and buying this album.

@Roshy266 my favorite is London :)

I think this is the best song off of Rabbits on the Run!

I FREAKING LOVE THIS SONG!! GAh I listen to it as soon as I wake up for work and it puts me in a good mood!! I want to learn how to play this on the piano so badly!!

It sounds a bit like a cross between Carousel and Home (from Heroes & Thieves) :S but it's really pretty!

she said something in one of concerts about 'magical thinking' it was some book i think but i didnt really get what it means :)

this sounds similar to "carousel"

Why are some of the lyric lines not even remotely close to the sung lyrics? lol I love this song! :)Edit | Remove

Gotta love her. :)
