One last tip of the hat to Skip Spence. This is one of a couple of songs the Airplane played for a while after Skip's departure. This one was actually released as their fourth single but it failed to chart. Great song and a great tune about special friendships and love. If you listen to Skips songs you will find most have those thoughts in mind. Released on the Pillow LP.
"My Best Friend"
Words and Music by Alexander Spence
Ah, you're my best friend
(You are my best friend)
And I love you so well
Till the end of time you won't see me
Ah, you're my best friend
(You are my best friend)
When I see you, it seems
Now I can see I've fallen into your love stream
I follow your dream
Do you know what I mean, yeah
I follow you wherever time will take me to
Forever I'll be one with you
One with you
One with you
Ah, you're my best friend
(You are my best friend)
And I saw that you're seein'
I'll set you free and just like me you'll be bein'
In love with me
Do you know what I mean, yeah
Do you know what I mean now
(Do you know what I mean)
I'm gonna set you free now
(Do you know)
You'll be in love with me
(Do you know what I mean)
You're my best friend now
Ah, you're my best friend
(You are my best friend)
And I love you so well
Till the end of time you won't see me
Ah, you're my best friend
(You are my best friend)
When I see you, it seems
Now I can see I've fallen into your love stream
I follow your dream
Do you know what I mean, yeah
Do you know what I mean now
(Do you know what I mean)
You'll be in love with me now
(Do you know)
I'm gonna set you free, yeah
(What I mean)
Oh you're my best friend now
