Asking for a Friend
What do you do when?
Every morning
The first thing you think is
You just want to stay in bed
I'm just asking for a friend
What do you say when?
All of your feelings
Are so overwhelming
That you're too tired to pretend
I'm just asking for a friend
Maybe you're thinking she sounds like a mess
But trust me when I say she's doing her best
Doing her best
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
How do you come back?
From losing all you have
You're so afraid that
You'll just lose it all again
I'm just asking for a friend
Maybe you don't know the right thing to say
But trust me what she needs is someone to stay
Someone to stay
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
I've been looking for connection
But I don't know where I fit in
I'm still afraid of rejection
But I'm ready to begin
'Cause I could really use a friend
I'm just asking for a friend
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
I'm just asking for a friend
Every morning
The first thing you think is
You just want to stay in bed
I'm just asking for a friend
What do you say when?
All of your feelings
Are so overwhelming
That you're too tired to pretend
I'm just asking for a friend
Maybe you're thinking she sounds like a mess
But trust me when I say she's doing her best
Doing her best
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
How do you come back?
From losing all you have
You're so afraid that
You'll just lose it all again
I'm just asking for a friend
Maybe you don't know the right thing to say
But trust me what she needs is someone to stay
Someone to stay
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
I've been looking for connection
But I don't know where I fit in
I'm still afraid of rejection
But I'm ready to begin
'Cause I could really use a friend
I'm just asking for a friend
We all need
We all need the same thing
Someone to let us in
We all need
We all need a safe place we don't have to defend
I'm not asking for all the pain in all the world to end
I'm just asking for a friend
I'm just asking for a friend
