Good Friends

Stand (2013), no. 12

Artist: Nik Day

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.

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. That’s a good friend. Yeah, that’s a good friend.
