Life has got you down
And there is nothing anyone can do
But turn it around
You wanted to be free
But all you got was misery
'Cause life don't love you
When you're holdin' on
Or after you let go
So what's it matter who you are
Or what you do
Baby, I know you want to end it all
But please, before you do
My friend, I know you've gone through
But Jesus died for you
So keep in mind
That although your heart is blue
Let it break in two
And you will find
A friend that lives in you, mmm...
Anything you want to know
The Heavenly Father gives you things you need
To help you grow
And when you feel you can't go on no more
You wait for Him to open the door
And He'll be with you
When you're ridin' high
And even when you're down
So what's it matter
What you gain or what you lose
Soon you'll learn that a gift from God
Is an offer you can't refuse
My friend, I know you've gone through
But Jesus died for you
So keep in mind
That although your heart is blue
Let it break in two
And you will find
A friend that lives in you
'Cause life don't love you
When you're holdin' on
Or after you let go
So what's it matter who you are
Or what you do
Baby, I know you want to end it all
But please, before you do
My friend, I know you've gone through
But Jesus died for you
So keep in mind
That although your heart is blue
Let it break in two
And you will find
A friend that lives in you
You'll find a friend that lives in you
Open your heart and you'll find
A friend that lives in you
