[00:20.802] | Friends – how many of us have them? |
[00:25.819] | Friends – ones we can depend on |
[00:30.688] | Friends – how many of us have them? |
[00:35.631] | Friends – before we go any further, let's be |
[00:40.737] | Friends |
[00:41.460] | |
[00:41.677] | Is a word we use everyday |
[00:42.959] | Most the time we use it in the wrong way |
[00:45.509] | Now you can look the word up, again and again |
[00:47.771] | But the dictionary doesn't know the meaning of friends |
[00:50.312] | And if you ask me, you know, I couldn't be much help |
[00:52.731] | Because A friend is somebody you judge for yourself |
[00:55.316] | Some are ok, and they treat you real cool |
[00:57.815] | But some mistake kindness for being a fool |
[01:00.316] | We like to be with some, because they're funny |
[01:02.841] | Others come around when they need some money |
[01:05.380] | Some you grew up with, around the way |
[01:07.769] | And you're still real close too this very day |
[01:10.080] | Homeboys through the Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall |
[01:12.725] | And then there's some we wish we never knew at all |
[01:15.146] | And this list goes on, again and again |
[01:17.738] | But these are the people that we call friends |
[01:20.721] | |
[01:50.314] | When we first went out together, we barely knew each other |
[01:52.951] | We had no intentions, on becoming lovers |
[01:55.396] | But in no time at all, you became my girl |
[01:57.696] | Me and you, one on one, against the world |
[02:00.232] | Talkin on the telephone for hours at a time |
[02:02.796] | Or else I was at your house, or you was at mine |
[02:05.208] | Then came the arguments and all kinds of problems |
[02:07.943] | Besides making love, we had nothing in common |
[02:10.235] | It couldn't last long because it started out strong |
[02:12.791] | But I guess we went about the whole thing wrong |
[02:15.265] | Cause out of nowhere it just came to an end |
[02:17.935] | Because we became lovers before we were friends |
[02:20.348] | |
[02:20.811] | Friends – how many of us have them? |
[02:25.638] | Friends – ones we can depend on |
[02:30.253] | Friends – how many of us have them? |
[02:35.574] | Friends – before we go any further, let's be |
[02:40.785] | Friends |
[02:41.454] | |
[02:50.416] | You say you and your girlfriend were so tight |
[02:52.780] | You took her out with you and your guy one night |
[02:55.354] | She even had a set of keys to your home |
[02:57.674] | And you shared mostly everything you owned |
[03:00.238] | But as she shook your hand, she stole your man |
[03:02.697] | And it was done so swift, it had to be a plan |
[03:05.267] | Couldn't trust her with cheese, let alone your keys |
[03:07.727] | With friends like that you don't need enemies |
[03:10.334] | You wonder how long it was all going on |
[03:12.784] | And your still not sure if your man is gone |
[03:15.261] | You say, well if she took him he was never mine |
[03:17.713] | But deep inside you know that's just another lie |
[03:20.435] | And now you're kinda cold to the people you meet |
[03:22.722] | Cause of something that was done to you by some creep |
[03:25.205] | But nevertheless, I'll say it again |
[03:27.615] | That these are the people that we call friends |
[03:30.491] | |
