And I never thought I'd feel this way And as far as I'm concerned I'm glad I've got a chance to say That I do believe I love you And if I should ever go away Well than close your eyes And try to feel the way we do today And then if you can't remember Keep smiling Keep shining Knowing you can always count on me For sure That's what friends are for For the good times And the bad times She'll be on your side forever more That's what friends are for Well you came in loving me And now there's so much more I see And so by the way I thank you And then for the times when we're apart Well then close your eyes and know The words are coming from my heart And then if you can remember Keep smiling and keep shining Knowing you can always count on me for sure That's what friends are for In good times and bad times She'll be on your side forever more That's what friends are for
