You’ve Got a Friend Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Just close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

[Chorus]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
Yes I will

[Bridge]
Ain't it good to know
That you've got a friend
When people can be so cold?
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
So now don't you let them

[Chorus]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Don't you know that, winter, spring, summer or fall
All you gotta do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
Oh you know, you know you've got a friend
You've got a friend
Ain't it good to know
Ain't it good to know
You've got a friend

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
