You Are My Friend

(album: The Gospel According To Patti Labelle - 2006)

You are my friend,
I never knew it 'til then
My friend, my friend

You hold my hand,
You might not say a word
But I see your tears when I show my pain

You're my, my friend
I never knew it 'til then
My friend
I feel your love,
When you're not near
It helps me make it knowing you care

The thought of you helps me carryon
When I feel all hope is gone
I see the world wit brand new eyes
Your love has made me realize
My future looks bright to me,
Oh because you are my friend
Da, da, da, da [ad lib]

I've been looking around and you were here all the time.
Da, da, da [ad lib]
I've been around and around and around and around
Da, da, da
I've been looking around and you were here all the time
[Repeat]
