If you say up - I say down
We´re the most unlikely pair
But up or down, high or low
You´ve always been right there

You´ve been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain´t too proud to say
You´ve been a friend to me

Now if I´m feeling lowdown
Or feeling ten feet tall
Thick or thin, the shape I´m in
Don´t matter to you at all

You´ve been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain´t too proud to say
You´ve been a friend to me

Whenever I needed someone
You´re right there on the line
With a friend like you, to get me through
I´ll get by every time

Whenever I needed someone
You´re right there on the line
With a friend like you, to get me through
I´ll get by every time

You´ve been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain´t too proud to say
You´ve been a friend to me
