And I never thought I'd feel this way before
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
well then close your eyes and try to feel the way we do today
and if you can't remember
[CHORUS]
Keep smiling, keep shining
knowing you can always count on me
for sure
that's what friends are for
through good times, and bad times,
I'll be on your side forevermore-
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
and then for the times when we're apart,
well, then close your eys and know
these words are coming from my heart
and if you can't remember
(repeat chorus)
I never thought I'd feel this way before
But I'm glad I got the chance to say I love you,
I love you -
that's what friends are for -
(repeat chorus)
