Lyrics
As strong as we are, we are fragile
Like the broken clouds in the sky
And the cold sets in, we huddle together
And the wind puts a glaze in our eyes.
And we look and we laugh at all that is daft
And promise we'll never succumb
Once in the corridors we couldn't run,
Now we streak naked just for fun.
Oh, you're my best friend
You're my best friend.
A single stick it can break in your hands but a bundle can always endure
Thick as thieves and closer than blood
You're the highest point during the flood.
Oh, you're my best friend.
You're my best friend.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It's really crazy to think that I could have blinked
You could have walked on by.
I can't tell you how much
What a really nice touch you've been in my arms.
