Lyrics:

It's so good that after all these years, that we can share something more than just tears. Someone like you should always be around, to lift up my sprits when they're fallin' down.



Chorus: It's very nice to have a friend. Oh, someone to talk to so good time so good time does spend. Someone to lean on when the road bends Oh, it's very nice to have a friend.



Oh, you made my mind up, but you knew how I felt. Oh, you know me better girl, yes you do, but I know myself. Oh, I'd never let you down off of your toes. I need you. You need me. That's the way it should be.



('Lady Oo, lovin' friend, I'll take that smile,' you said...)



People say things that never come true, 'cause deep in their hearts they're not thinkin' of you. You may be silent, but I know you care, 'cause wherever I am, girl, I know you'll be there... Oh



Chorus:



I need you. You need me. That's the way it should be ('Lady Oo, lovin' friend, I'll take that smile,' you said...)



It's very nice to have a friend. Oh, someone to talk to so good time so good time does spend. Someone to lean on when the road bends Oh, it's very nice to have one good friend. It's so nice to have a friend. (x5)
