That’s What Friends Are For

[Verse 1]
When you're lonely
When you're blue
When you need someone to talk to
When you need a talking to

[Pre-Chorus]
And when troubles fall a-plenty
Come piling at your door
That's what friends are for

[Chorus]
Ladies and gentlemen
Of the whole wide world
If every now and then
A single voice was heard

[Post-Chorus]
Telling it like it should be
Making it simple and plain
If that man needs a helping hand
Help him in from the rain

[Verse 2]
How I know you
Know you well
And I know that you've been worrying
It's not hard for me to tell

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm standing right beside you
Of that you can be sure
That's what friends are for

[Chorus]
Ladies and gentlemen
Of the whole wide world
If every now and then
A single voice was heard

[Post-Chorus]
Telling it like it should be
Making it simple and plain
If that man needs a helping hand
Help him in from the rain

[Verse 3]
Also remember
Take your time
Just be sure and let it harmonise
Yeah, be sure and let it rhyme

[Outro]
I might call on you to see me through
So open up your door
That's what friends are for
That's what friends are for
