Oh, I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember
Keep smilin'
[Keep smilin']
Keep shining'
[Keep shinin']
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times
[For good times]
And bad times
[And bad times]
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for
And I thought you heard it all before
Well, I tell you one more time
So I can be completely sure
So you know how much I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do this day
And then if you can remember
Keep smilin'
[Keep smilin']
Keep shinin'
[Keep shinin']
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times
[For good times]
And bad times
[And bad times]
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for
