Transcription by Jim Gilsinan IV

It's hard to believe
  There once was a time,
When you weren't a part of my life.

'Cause whatever we do,
  We'll do it as two:
Just me and you, side by side.

Friends are for
  Those long lonely nights;
They call you on gray, rainy days.

Friends are more
  Than you bargianed for:
They wash all your worries away.

It's hard to believe
  What's happening to me,
And how much you're changing my life.

Through thick and thin
  Wherever we've been
We'll always win
  'Cause we're two best . . .

Friends are for
  Those long lonely nights.
They call you on gray, rainy days.

Friends are more
  Than you bargained for:
They wash all your worries away.

Just when I thought
  I couldn't go on,
Like a new song
  You happened,
You happened along.

Friends are for
  Those long lonely nights.
They call you on gray, rainy days.

Friends are more
  Than you bargained for:
They wash all your worries away.
