• A friend is the one who tells you the truth
    regardless of the cost,
    A friend will help you find the thing's
    you'd given up as lost

    A friend will never put you down
    or make you feel alone,
    He'll smile and try to comfort you
    'cause together you have grown

    A friend is the one who picks you up
    when you've fallen on the ground,
    A friend is the one whose voice at night
    is a welcome, warming sound

    So when you think you're on your own
    and wish you had a helping hand,
    Remember, a friend is the one who,
    when you cry, will always understand

    Because the world is full of people
    who will laughingly pretend,
    But, when it's said and done
    you're lucky if you've got a friend…
