The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
"I wake up in the morning and I see another new day
rain or shine, well I don't mind, I'll never be alone.
I've got my friends and in the end, as long as we're together,
It's all for one and one for all as everybody knows.
When you're walking in the park, and you're lost it's getting dark,
no-one seems to be around, we're here in your heart.
We're all together, that's what friends are for,
all together, to open every door,
and we go rit,dit,dit,dit da da, rit dit,dit,dit da,da,
just to put the sunshine in your eyes,
cos that's what friends are for.
Remember all the sunny days, and dancing in the moonlight,
going to bed just tired and happy when the day is done.
A picnics great in the summer time, we go down to the seaside,
and sharing means there'll always be, enough for everyone.
When you're swimming off the beach, and the shore is out of reach,
never fear there's someone there, to bring you safely back.
We're all together, that's what friends are for,
all together, to open every door,
and we go rit,dit,dit,dit da da, rit, dit dit, dit da,da
just to put the sunshine in your eyes,
cos that's what friends are for.
That's what friends are for,
That's what friends are for,
That's what friends are for.
Wheeeeee
That's what friends are for (repeat to end)
