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

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

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!
