Always a Friend of Mine

I see a boy down on the corner he has nothing to his name
I see the dreams that we can follow and die for just the same
and I see someone I believe in through hard and troubled times
if I ever loose my way yeah you're always a friend of mine

then you step out in the big world take the chances that you can
I see the sweat I see the tears yes, brotherhood of man
and I see someone I believe in through hard and troubled times
if I ever loose my way yeah you're always a friend of mine

then you learned about your people (then you learned about your people)
some are weak and some are strong
some might stand up for you do anything for you
others might do you wrong

and I have someone I believe in through hard and troubled times
if I ever loose my way yeah you're always a friend of mine
yes you are

how I used to long for happiness whatever it would take
how I'd die for that old true love make no mistake
how I used to think all that glittered was gold and all of that was mine
now all I have is this moment hoping it's never gonna pass me by
pass me by

now did you find as you went searching all that you were looking for
and has time began to heal you well I got I got more than I bargained for
and I see someone I believe in through hard and troubled times
if I ever loose my way yeah your always a friend of mine
oh yes you are
if I ever loose my way your always a friend of mine
friend of mine
