Lyrics

Friends

[Verse 1] I hope the day will be a lighter highway For friends are found on every road Can you ever think of any better way for the lost and weary travelers to go? [Chorus] Making friends for the world to see Let the people know you got what you need With a friend at hand, you will see the light If your friends are there, then everything's all right [Verse 2] It seems to me a crime that we should age These fragile times should never slip us by A time you never can or shall erase As friends together watch their childhood fly [Chorus] Making friends for the world to see Let the people know you got what you need With a friend at hand, you will see the light If your friends are there, then everything's all right Making friends for the world to see Let the people know you got what you need With a friend at hand, you will see the light If your friends are there, then everything's all right
