I've got a friend Who lives a mile down the street I want her close to me each time we meet I've got a friend she gives me a reason to cry I hate to say goodbye So when my ears can no longer hear When every rainbow is reflected tears When times get silent I can only pray Come give me love, come give me love Come give me freedom Come give me peace Come consolation and mind at ease Come give me loving Come give me hope at the end And I will smile again I know a place nearby where we use to go To spend some time alone when the nights are cold I've got a friend she's only a heartbeat away We said goodbye today So when my ears can no longer hear When every rainbow is reflected tears When times get silent I can only pray Come give me love, come give me love Come give me flowers Come give me trees Come give me rivers Come give me seas Come give me loving Come give me hope at the end And I will smile again Come give me wisdom Come give me trust Come give me pleasure And times of lust Come give me loving Come give me hope at the end And I will smile again When all my fingers can no longer feel And when my eyes are too weak to see When times get rougher I can only pray Come give me sunshine, Come give me rain Come let you hair down Release my pain Come give me loving Come give me hope at the end And I will smile again
