Lyrics

Now, there
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life

You told me all the things
That you think are wrong with me
I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me put them right
But nevertheless :

There ... mm
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life

You listed all the things
That people cannot stand about me
I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me to improve
Because I've tried, I've tried
Oh, I've really really tried

You say I don't know how to live
(And that's true)
You say I don't deserve to live
Oh, where would I be without my friends to help me ?
I just can't imagine where I'd be, can you ?
No
