There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life
You told me all the things
That you think are wrong with me
I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me put them right
But nevertheless:
There... Mm
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life
You listed all the things
That people cannot stand about me
I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me to improve
Because I've tried, I've tried
Oh, I've really really tried
You say I don't know how to live
(and that's true)
You say I don't deserve to live
Oh, where would I be without my friends to help me?
I just can't imagine where I'd be, can you?
No
Now, there There speaks a true friend There speaks a friend for life You told me all the things That you think are wrong with me I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me put them right But nevertheless: There... Mm There speaks a true friend There speaks a friend for life You listed all the things That people cannot stand about me I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me to improve Because I've tried, I've tried Oh, I've really really tried You say I don't know how to live (and that's true) You say I don't deserve to live Oh, where would I be without my friends to help me? I just can't imagine where I'd be, can you? No Explain Request ×
