You're My Friend
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.
You're my friend, you've done a lot of really nice things for me
And I won't forget 'em, do you know how much you mean to me
You're my friend and no matter what I'm doing you were there for me
Without you my ship would surely drift out lost at sea
Just when I think I've handed you too much
You always find a way to come through in the clutch
And you don't make me feel I owe you, but I do
You're my friend from the day we met till the bitter end
I don't know how I could have made it any other way
Yeah, you're my friend coming through again and again
Your good will, I never will betray
Sweet charity, all the nice things that you do for me
I can't forget 'em, do you know how much that means to me?
Sweet charity, no matter how I screwed up you were there for me
Without you I can't say how dark the days would be
Just when I think I've handed you too much
You always find a way to come through in the clutch
And you don't make me feel I owe you but I do
You're my friend from the day we met till the bitter end
I don't know how I could have made it any other way
You're my friend, coming through again and again
Your good will, I never will betray
Just when I think I've handed you too much
You always find a way to come through in the clutch
And you don't make me feel I owe you, but I do
You're my friend from the day we met till the bitter end
I don't know how I could have made it any other way
Yeah, you're my friend, coming through again and again
Your good will, I never will betray
You're my friend
