I knew You when I was just a little baby
Cried at night, my mother held me tight as could be
Watched me growing from a little boy
You've been the only one who understood my pain, my joy
You knew me then
We are forever friends
Questing on the long and unseen trail I crossed
What seemed an endless sea with trouble on my sail
I've come so far and yet I don't know how
All I know is that You were with me then as You are now
We've always been
We are forever friends
As the memories of the past grow old
I see the mystery of my life beginning to unfold
Painful times I thought would never end
But You always seemed to pull me through my darkest hour
Time and time again
We are forever friends
Take me on an endless journey
Far beyond this troubled world
Rest me on the furlough of Your love
Waiting for that day of glory
On the hour that You return
This is really all that I believe
Forever friends
Mmm, oh Lord
We've always been forever friends
I knew you were then, eh, we are forever friends
We've always been friends
Oh, Lord
And I knew You then my Lord
Alright, alright mmm
And I always knew, we were
Ooh, Lord we are we are
And I always knew it
Forever friends
Forever, forever, forever, forever
Forever, forever, forever
Always been forever friends, mmm
Forever friends
I knew You then
We are forever friends
