By A Friend Lyrics

By A Friend lyrics

Say to me what you really mean
I won't ever give you reason to lie
See
into me, what I am is in my eyes
And I'm willing to believe the same in
you
I think I'm ready now, I'm only learning how
Is there anyone around
who has a plan?
I'm not a lonely man, there are those who think I am
But
I'd rather be alone until I'm standing by a friend
By a friend I've known
only minutes
By a friend I've known all my life
To you friend I say let
us go outside and play
In the laughter, in the rain
In the sunlight, in
the pain
Everyone I've ever known needs a friend
A warm hand in
hand
Every woman and man
You want to make a good friend, do it
now
Brother why wait around?
Sister don't let me down
Cause you pass
right by a friend
And they might never come again oh yeah
Don't you know
me?
What I really mean
Is there something here that you can
understand?
I am not afraid oh to open up my hand
And I stretch it out to
see
If it's taken by a friend
repeat chorus
