Everyone Needs a Friend

A lot of sad and dreary faces here tonight

Guess they started out feelin' alright

Girls with the blues, makeup on their face

And boys, missin' love so bad I hear them say

I need a lover, I need a friend

I need someone who ain't runnin' away

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

To wake you up and sing the lullabies

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

That's what it's all about

Alright

You know that

When you check it out, you will know

That there's no one for you to lean on

'Cause everybody got to do it their way

So come on down, baby, come on, get it alright

I need a lover, you need a friend

I need someone who ain't runnin' away

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

To wake you up and sing the lullabies

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

That's what it's all about

That's right

But I know...

You need a lover, and I need a friend

I need someone who ain't runnin' away, 'cause

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

To wake you up and share the lullabies

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

That's what it's all about

Everyone needs a friend sometimes

Wooh, I don't wanna walk on down the line

(Everyone needs a friend sometimes, everybody)

Yeah, I'm singin' out loud

Everyone needs a friend sometimes (Everyone needs a friend)

Sweet talkin'

Everyone needs a friend sometimes (Oh, yes they do)

That's what it's all about

(Everyone needs a friend sometimes)

To wake you up and share the lullabies
