if you say up - i say down
we're the most unlikely pair
but up or down, high or low
you've always been right there
you've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
i ain't too proud to say
you've been a friend to me
now if i'm feeling lowdown
or feeling ten feet tall
thick or thin, the shape i'm in
don't matter to you at all
you've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
i ain't too proud to say
you've been a friend to me
whenever I needed someone
you're right there on the line
with a friend like you, to get me through
i'll get by every time
whenever I needed someone
you're right there on the line
with a friend like you, to get me through
i'll get by every time
you've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
i ain't too proud to say
you've been a friend to me
