And 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-ay

Well then close your eyes and try

Feel the way we do today

And then if you can remember



Keep smilin', keep shinin'

Knowin' you can always count on me-ee, for sure

That's what friends are for

For good times and bad times

I'll be on your side forever more-ore

That's what friends are for



Well you came and opened me

And now there's so much more I see

And so by the way I thank you

Woh, and then for the times when we're apart

Well then close your eyes and know

The words are comin' from my heart

And then if you can remember



Oh-oh, keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can always count on me, for sure

That's what friends are for

In good times, in bad times

I'll be on your side forever more

Oh-oh, that's what friends are for, oh-oh-oh



Woh-oh-oh, keep smilin', keep shinin'

Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure

That's what friends are for-or-or-or

For good times and bad times

I'll be on your side forever more-ore-ore-ore-ore

That's what friends are for-or-or-or-or



Keep smilin', keep shinin'

Knowin' you can always count on me, that's for sure

'Cause I tell ya, that's what friends are for

For good times and the bad times

I'll be on your side forever more

That's what friends are for

That's what friends are for, hah-hah, yeah



I mean for sure

I don't mean for sure, I don't mean for sure [fade]
