When you've gone in trouble
And you need some lovin' care
And nothing, no nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
If the skies above you
Grows dark in sooty clouds
And that old notchin' wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And soon I'll be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
Well, ain't it good to know
That you've got a friend
When people can get so cold
They hurt you, they desert you
And they'll take your soul
If you let them
But they won't let them
Won't let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, here we go
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again
To see you again and again and again and again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
