1. Ev’rybody needs a friend
No one wants to be alone.
Oh, when things are lookin’ down,
it’s good to have somewhere to go.
There are those who really love you
you can see it in their eyes.
There are those who will pretend to
and might say all sorts of lies.
And it might hurt you
but it’s good to
know how to recognize
the one from the other
and make the ones that matter.
Good friends lift you up
when you feel you’ve had enough
keep you goin’ through the thick and thin.
Good friends gather round you,
leave you better than they found you.
They’re by your side until the very end.
Yeah, that’s a good friend.
That’s a good friend.
2. Ev’rybody needs a friend
and there’s always room for more.
You might be the one they need.
So what are you waiting for.
There are those who want to
but they are just too shy,
and they might pretend like,
ev’ry thing’s alright.
We’ll be able to see,
if we open up our eyes.
We’ll start to notice suff’rers
and be the ones that matter.
Good friends lift you up
when you feel you’ve had enough
keep you goin’ through the thick and thin.
Good friends gather round you,
leave you better than they found you.
They’re by your side until the very end.
