I've got hope when things look bad
And I can smile when I should be sad
I've got friends who lift me up when I'm feeling low
And they watch over me wherever I may go

I've got friends in high places
So high but not so far away
I've got friends in high places
And I'm gonna be with them someday

There's the Father right by His Son
And the angels, each and everyone
And other friends I miss so much and I long to see
But knowing I'll be with them one day comforts me

I've got friends in high places
So high but not so far away
I've got friends in high places
And I'm gonna be with them someday

Why should I run
Why should I hide
What's there to fear
When my friends are on my side

I've got friends in high places
So high but not so far away
I've got friends in high places
And I'm gonna be with them
I'm gonna be with them
I've got friends in high places
So high but not so far away
I've got friends in high places
And I'm gonna be with them
Yes, I'm gonna be with them someday
