friends
I can think of nothing else
But what you have to say
When you're talking I can tell
We're seeing things the same
There are people I know well
But superficially
This magic is creating friends
In between you and between me
Challenges in what time brings
It cannot break this bond
This friendship that we've started here
I know it will go on
Oceans are the fences that
Keep our souls at bay
But we can truly come together
We are good friends in a special way
And friends can make you cry
From all this joy you feel inside
You're my friend always there
And always close enough to share
What I
hold in my heart to bare to you
to make that start to grow
To grow.
I have lived without a friend
Just like you all my life
Prayers were answered once again
Right before my eyes
Hanging onto love that is
Never letting go
Finding out the meaning
Of friends that I long to know
(instrumental)
True friends can make you smile
Through all those most important times
I've found a master of pure peace
In times I think I've lost my mind
What I hold in he is the one who sets it free
So free
so free.
I can think of nothing else
But what you have to say
When you're talking I can tell
We're seeing things the same
There are people I know well
But superficially
This magic is creating friends
In between you and in between me
Friends.
