[ Featuring Patti LaBelle ]
You are my friend,
I never knew it till then
My friend, my friend
You hold my hand,
You might not say a word
But I see your tears when I show my pain
You're my, my friend
I never knew it till then
My friend
I feel your love,
When you're not near
It helps me make it knowing you care
The thought of you helps me carry on
When I feel all hope is gone
I see the world with brand new eyes
Your love has made me realize
My future looks bright to me,
Oh because you are my friend
You are my friend
[Repeats in background]
I've been looking around and you were here all the time
I've been around and around and around and around
I've been looking around and you were here all the time
You know what I've been doing
I've been looking [Repeat: x7]
