Lyrics
Oh, what I wouldn't do for piece and quiet,
and what I wouldn't do to stop your crying,
and what I wouldn't do to try one more time
Oh, what I wouldn't do to be your friend,
yes and what I wouldn't do to hold your hand,
and what I wouldn't do to show you I understand
Oh, Won't you be my friend?
Yeah, and won't you hold my hand?
Won't you try one more time?
And what I wouldn't do to see you smile,
yeah and I know you're gonna bring me warm sunshine,
and what I wouldn't do to try one more time
Oh, won't you be my friend?
Yeah and won't you hold my hand?
Yes and won't you try one more time?
Won't you understand?
Yeah and won't you hold my hand?
Yes and won't you try one more time?
Alright
