Midnight, soul tired in the burnout Couldn’t get back up from the knockdown I was thinking it was over But you didn’t let go There were times when I lied straight to your face Turning back to the style of my old ways But you only held me closer And you didn't let go You’ve always been a friend to me When everybody else walked away You’ve always been a friend to me I know for certain that you’re here to stay Even when I don’t act right, it don’t change your love I don’t have to doubt it because You’ve always been a friend to me You’ve always been a friend to me A good friend to me Heart broke into a million pieces So used to everybody leaving You’re the only one who knows me In the moments that count Always there for me right when I need it There were times when I just couldn’t believe it Yeah, I know it took a minute But I realize now You’ve always been a friend to me When everybody else walked away You’ve always been a friend to me I know for certain that you’re here to stay Even when I don’t act right, it don’t change your love I don’t have to doubt it because You’ve always been a friend to me You’ve always been a friend to me A good friend to me In the good times and hard I can still feel your heart Beating right next to mine Where you’ve been the whole time You’ve always been a friend to me When everybody else walked away You’ve always been a friend to me I know for certain that you’re here to stay Even when I don’t act right, it don’t change your love I don’t have to doubt it because You’ve always been a friend to me You’ve always been a friend to me A good friend to me
