I’ve got a friend
Who lives a mile down the street
I want her close to me each time we meet
I’ve got a friend she gives me a reason to cry
I hate to say goodbye

So when my ears can no longer hear
When every rainbow is reflected tears
When times get silent I can only pray
Come give me love, come give me love

Come give me freedom
Come give me peace
Come consolation and mind at ease
Come give me loving
Come give me hope at the end
And I will smile again

I know a place nearby where we use to go
To spend some time alone when the nights are cold
I’ve got a friend she’s only a heartbeat away
We said goodbye today

So when my ears can no longer hear
When every rainbow is reflected tears
When times get silent I can only pray
Come give me love, come give me love

Come give me flowers
Come give me trees
Come give me rivers
Come give me seas
Come give me loving
Come give me hope at the end
And I will smile again

Come give me wisdom
Come give me trust
Come give me pleasure
And times of lust
Come give me loving
Come give me hope at the end
And I will smile again

When all my fingers can no longer feel
And when my eyes are too weak to see
When times get rougher
I can only pray

Come give me sunshine,
Come give me rain
Come let you hair down
Release my pain
Come give me loving
Come give me hope at the end
And I will smile again
