[00:16.620]These friends of mine
[00:19.900]Live their lives
[00:23.220]Spend their time
[00:26.700]Hoping to find
[00:30.250]Who they are
[00:33.430]How they're made
[00:36.880]Thought maybe they'd
[00:40.180]Hoping to find the way
[00:44.070]These friends of mine
[00:47.230]They have lives
[00:50.670]They work hard
[00:54.120]To live them right
[00:58.550]And when they laugh
[01:01.530]It makes me high
[01:04.310]They'd take a train
[01:07.400]10,000 miles before they'd fly
[01:17.990]These friends of mine
[01:21.270]They feel alone
[01:24.830]When the shows are over
[01:27.900]Don't know where to go
[01:31.580]In Philadelphia
[01:35.470]At Christmas time
[01:38.530]They question love
[01:41.650]Wonder why they try
[01:47.190]And when the show is over
[01:49.690]How I hope that they discover
[01:53.670]The joy that they bring
[02:00.280]And I hope they remember
[02:03.150]This bond we have together
[02:07.540]And how they love to sing
[02:12.860]These friends of mine
[02:16.480]Live in New York
[02:19.860]They were raised in Michigan
[02:26.300]They don't know things
[02:29.950]They don't hold hands
[02:33.490]Guard their hearts
[02:36.750]The best they can
[02:41.510]And when the show is over
[02:44.530]How I hope that they discover
[02:48.680]The joy that they bring
[02:55.160]And I hope that they remember
[02:58.230]This bond we have together
[03:02.380]And how they love to sing
[03:09.410]They sure love to sing
[03:42.190]Maybe I needed this time
[03:48.770]To be reminded for myself
[03:55.840]Maybe I needed this time
[04:03.850]To be reminded for myself
[04:10.410]How I love to sing
