And I never thought I'd feel this way

And as far as I'm concerned

I'm glad I got the chance to say

That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away

Well then close your eyes and try to feel the way we do today

And if you can't remember



Keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can always count on me

For sure

That's what friends are for

For good times, and bad times, 

I'll be on your side forevermore- 

That's what friends are for



Well, you came and opened me,

And now there's so much more I see

And so by the way I thank you

And then for the times when we're apart, 

Well, then close your eys and know 

These words are coming from my heart

And if you can't remember



Keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can always count on me

For sure

That's what friends are for

For good times, and bad times, 

I'll be on your side forevermore- 

That's what friends are for



I never thought I'd feel this way before

But I'm glad I got the chance to say I love you,

I love you -

That's what friends are for -



Keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can always count on me

For sure

That's what friends are for

For good times, and bad times, 

I'll be on your side forevermore- 

That's what friends are for
