Lyrics
You've been at my side through the hardest of times
there when I needed you most
The truest of blue I wonder if you
Were sent by the holy ghost
We have a bond that keeps holding on
Like some kind of cosmic glue
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you
I have a friend in you
you have a friend in me
There's nothing oh nothing I wouldn't do for you
Unconditionally
We had ourselves a quarrel or two
could have broken our friendship in half
But the magic of us is not giving up
Now we look back and laugh
I think of the times you're on my mind
And the phone rings right on cue
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you
I have a friend in you
you have a friend in me
There's nothing oh nothing I wouldn't do for you
Unconditionally
A friend like you is family too
That is what we've become
We'll never be too far apart
Even when our time comes
We'll fly in the clouds and frolic about
Like angel friends must do
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you
I have a friend in you
