(Verse 1)
And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I've got a chance to say (whacha gonna say?)
That I do believe I love you (aw, man!)
And if I should ever go away
Well then, close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember

(Chorus)
Keep smiling
Keep shining
Knowin' you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times
And bad times
I'll be on your side forevermore
'Cause that's what friends are for

Oh, yeah!
Play it, Jimmy!

(Verse 2)
Well, you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see (whaddya see?)
And so by the way, I thank you
And then for the times that we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin' from my heart
And then if you can remember
(Chorus)
Oh, keep smiling
Keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times
And bad times
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for

Keep smiling
Keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
Oh, that's what friends are for
For good times
And for bad times
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for

Keep smiling
Keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
'Cause I tell you that's what friends are for
For good times
And for bad times
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for
(That's what friends are for
Oh, yeah
Where's my harmonica?)
