When the world gets crazy when it's upside down It may not seem like anyone will help you off the ground But sometimes, you've been looking too hard Sometimes, you forget who you are Don't wait for the world to begin You've got to be your own best friend It might not be easy but you gotta have love in hard times Even at the beginning we had a different view I know that difference is part of loving you But sometimes, you don't know which road to take Sometimes you might be loosing your faith Can't wait for the wrongs to be right We gotta hold on through the night It might not be easy but you gotta have love in hard times I know (I know) We been here before I know (I know) Ready to walk out the door I know (I know) We can't do this any more Thinking you don't know what it's like Thinking you can't know what it's like Sometimes you forget where you've been Sometimes you gotta do it again Can't wait for the world to begin You've got to be your own best friend It might not be easy but you gotta have love in hard times
