Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down a road and back again Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant I'm not ashamed to say I hope it always will stay this way My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow And if you threw a party Invited everyone you knew You would see the biggest gift would be from me And the card attached would say Thank you for being a friend If it's a car you lack I'd surely buy you a Cadillac Whatever you need any time of the day or night I'm not ashamed to say I hope it always will stay this way My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow And when we both get older With walking canes and hair of gray Have no fear even though it's hard to hear I will stand real close and say Thank you for being a friend And when we die And float away Into the night The milky way You'll hear me call As we ascend I'll say your name Then once again Thank you for being a friend |

I talked to my baby on the telephone
Long distance I never would've guessed I could miss someone so bad I really only met her 'bout a week ago But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart I know that I love her I'm hoping that I never recover 'Cause she's good for me And it would really make me happy To never let her slip away I feel like a kid with a teenage crush On a school date I feel like the lead in "Romeo & Juliet" I'm a little bit dizzy I'm a little bit scared I guess I never felt this much aware That I'd love her I'm hoping that I'll never recover Cause she's good for me And it would really make me happy To never let her slip away I really only met her 'bout a week ago But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart I know that I love her I'm hoping that I never recover 'Cause she's good for me And it would really make me happy To never let her slip away Mmmmmm I love her I'm hoping that I never recover 'Cause she's good for me And it would really make me happy To never let her slip away Oh I know it's gonna make me happy To never let her slip away |
