Coral, The - Reaching Out For A Friend Lyrics






Reaching out to find a friend
In a world where the troubles never seem to mend
I'm reaching out for a friend

People walking in the sun
Lost in fear or lost in love
When the rain falls down
It falls on everyone

I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah, I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

Drawing circles in the sand
Trying hard to understand
How the dreams we hold
Slip right through our hands

Another day in another life
I see it all with my own eyes
When it all comes around
The truth outweighs a lie

I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah, I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

Some people talk like they know everything
Some act like they just don't believe
Others they try and make you feel ashamed
But most don't practice what they preach

Reaching out to find a friend
In a world where the troubles never seem to end
Oh here I go again

I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah, I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

    Trippiest music video I have seen. Amazing song though.

  5. A.... B....

    What I love about this song is there not pretending to be something they're not. It's the iconic sound of the coral but with a modern twist. Its so wrong that they don't get the plaudits of bigger mainstream bands. Keep doing what your doing because it's world class

  6. R.... H....

    I just really enjoy there sound, remind of Blur, that may sound strange but they do, of course the Beatles aswell.

  7. G.... H....

    Utterly amazing '60 influenced Scouse brilliance :)

    Esta canción tiene mucha influencia Beatle.

  23. t.... m....

    the sun looks creepy af :( but the song is great :3

  24. I.... K....

    Pulp , Supergrass, Blur, feels like 1995 again , Brit Pop Anthem of 2018 !

  25. S.... E....

    Superb song video & album ❤

  26. S.... S....

    Am I the only one who finds this video totally unsettling?

  27. J.... C....

    It is because such as bands as The Coral exist that the world is still a habitable place.

  28. n.... r....

    Great gig at Skellyton Coast satdee. Rocked that at the end. Big up The Fernweh and Peach Fuzz too.

  29. B.... C....

    Love the LSD-ish style.

  39. S.... R....

    Good job, The Coral!

  40. C.... V....

    This video suits very well to the song 🤔

  41. R.... T....

    "Outside my window" is next...

    R.... T....

    That's the best song on the album for a single that is for me, how do you know "Outside My Window," is the next single? .. Would not of picked this song "Reaching Out For a Friend," for a single but the video really suits the song.. There are far better songs on the album.. It does have a beach boys kind of kick to it..

    R.... T....

    @Dáithí Ó Pléimeann ... meant to be as it was Fer it was next in line up....

    R.... T....

    I don't know what your saying.. Thanks anyway have a nice day..

    R.... T....

    @Dáithí Ó Pléimeann ...your welcome slinky...

  42. L.... M....

    Amo a The Coral

  43. P.... r....

    Great as always ❤

  44. T.... I....

    Great As Usual !!!! 👌

  45. D.... N....

    Greetings from Poland! I really love it !

  46. K.... N....

    в России вас тоже знают )

  47. E.... J....

    Don't understand this as a single. It's the most bland song on the album

    E.... J....

    the foreigner in this comment section has spoken everyone...

    E.... J....

    Yes, the Coral are not great at picking singles as they left Butterfly House on the shelf on the album "The Butterfly House." They released Two Faces which was very average and didn't even fit on the album.. They've now released "Sweet Release, " which was a really weak single for me, not bad but not great either.. "Eye's like Pearls," was a good single release but not brilliant.. Outside My Window is by far the best choice for a single release but knowing the Coral they won't release it... The album has flown out of the charts already and only peaked at 14 and this is the song they released in order to get the album back up the charts? I don't think so.. Not a wise move by the Coral.. Then again, young children might catch on to this video which might help the song take off up the charts.. The video really suits the song but I'm not crazy about the song as it is very bland even though it has a beach boys kick to it.. The chorus is the solo or there is no solo..

  48. R.... V....

    Good Music.

  49. p.... d....

    A totally unique band, there's not many decent bands around any more, the Coral are shining light.

    p.... d....

    There are actually more decent bands around than ever. But this lot are magnificent, will have to give this album a listen now

    p.... d....

    Well said, consistently making great music year after year, one of the best live bands I've ever seen as well.

    p.... d....

    TOTALLY AGREED

    p.... d....

    You do realize they broke up almost a decade ago.

    p.... d....

    @Yonked Lada never split just worked on other stuff

  50. s.... ....

    Great work lads. Only one Coral

  51. L.... M....

    Who needs drugs when you have videos like this? ❤

    L.... M....

    Try watching it on drugs

  52. S.... ....

    Wow, this is nice. 😄😄😄

  53. Y.... K....

    Best song in the new album

    Y.... K....

    Outside my window

    Y.... K....

    This song is ok, but it's not great either.. "Outside My Window," is brilliant for me and Stormbreaker but I'd never have picked this song for a single but the video really suits it.. Each to their own I guess.

  54. L.... C....

    Are these Ian drawings?

    L.... C....

    Linkovich Chomofski Looks absolutely killer like Ian’s artwork! Sure it is! 😉🤙🏻

  55. J.... K....

    I love the art in the way of Serpent Power! I love the oldschool psychedelia style! You lads are doing amazing as always! So fresh and surreal! The song is Killer!!! 💙

  56. O.... S....

    Una hermosura....
