A Friend in Need

How many times did you ever get to the edge and say
There's no turning back no, no, no, there ain't no other way
But in the depths of confusion, when the chips are really down
There's a tap on your shoulder baby and you've got to turn around

Here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed
No explanations needed, no questionnaire
Just take a look behind you baby, I'll be standing…

I know a man from the north, but his philosophy is a farce
He said a friend in need is just a pain in the arse
He's dealing with his friendships like he's dealing with his cards
And when the deal turns sour well he's disappearing fast

Here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed
No explanations needed, no questionnaire
Just take a look behind you baby, I'll be standing…

Oooh but you're thinking where upon this speck of dust
Can I find a soul, a soul that I can trust
These little minds around me they make everything so small
Molehills out of mountains and they don't see the beauty of it all

Nothing can really harm you but your own loss of face
It's too tough to handle and you don't wanna finish the race
But there's an answer to the problem like the sun behind the rain
Just take a look around you and you'll be smiling again

Here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed
No explanations needed, no, no questionnaire
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there…

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed
No explanation needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed
No explanations needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed
No explanations needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed
