Lyrics[]
(Bold text represents Dottie West)
It's hard to believe there once was a time
When you weren't a part of my life
'Cause whatever we do, we'll do it as two
'Just me and you, side by side
Friends are for those long, lonely nights
They call you on gray, rainy days
Friends are more than you bargained for
They wash all your worries away
It's hard to believe what's happening to me
And how much you're changing my life
Through thick and thin, wherever we've been
We'll always win 'cause we're two best...
Friends are for those long, lonely nights
They call you on gray, rainy days
Friends are more than you bargained for*
They wash all your worries away
Just when I thought I couldn't go on
Like a new song, you happened
You happened along
Friends are for those long, lonely nights
They call you on gray, rainy days
Friends are more than you bargained for
They wash all your worries away
Friends are for those long, lonely nights
They call you on gray, rainy days
Friends are more than you bargained for
They wash all your worries away
