When times are tough
and you’re struggling through
It’s never enough
No matter how much you do
Just look around
And you’ll find a friend
To the very end
I will be there for you
Because a friend is there when you need them
And when you don’t
You don’t worry that they might leave you
Because they won’t
The wounds of a friend are sweeter
Than the kisses of pleasant words
And forgiveness is the sweetest gift
You’ll get from those you’ve hurt
When the road is rough
And you’re stumbling along
You tripped and fell
And bruised your heart on a stone
Reach out your hand
And you’ll find a friend
Then you’ll understand
You were never alone
