While you're gone, boy, do you wonder how I spend my day?
Thinkin' 'bout you and maybe in a special way
I could show you how I miss you more and more
'Cause after all, that's what friends are for

Are you tired? Do you think that you would like to nap?
By the fire I will hold you gently in my lap
And I'll count the minutes 'til you sleep no more
'Cause after all, that's what friends are for

All I want to do is to make life a little better for you
So I try so hard to keep what's ours together
Oh, there never could be another for me

Are you hungry? Think that you could use some wine?
And the music, did you have a certain thing in mind?
Dinner, wine and music starts to bore
Fluff the pillows on the floor and more
'Cause after all, that's what friends are for
'Cause after all, that's what friends are for
