[Verse 1]
Well it's been a long time and I spend a lotta time
Thinkin' about the way things used to be back then
Only thing that changed is that we’re not together
Vibe's still there and we all love one another
Sarah and Dana, remember way back when
When we touched the soul?
Singing what we liked
'Cause we loved one another, and that could never change
And we still love one another, so we sing together

[Chorus]
Don't you tell me it's alright
When I can see the way you smile
Way you smile, way you smile
You’ve been crying all night long and
Hey, it's so good to know
That I got a friend in you
And you got a friend in me
A friend in me, friend in me
Yeah you got a friend in me and
Hey, it's so good to know
That I got a friend in you
And you got a friend in me
Friend in me, friend in me
Ain't it good to know now
[Verse 2]
I read your letter on the plane that day
And though I'm far away, I had you right there with me
Everything you said was on the money (money)
We gotta start doing things soon, real soon
Mama and Papa don't understand
Dreaming dreams when they work so hard for
The social standard, A little understanding
And it all comes true, 'cause we got no time to lose
Things you do for me, won't I do for you
Learning from the past and you gotta live the new
I lost a father to a social crusade
Life throws you lemons and you make lemonade
And open up your window so I can serenade
Family and friends like my sister, Sakari
Don't feel sorry for mistakes in the past
If it's good, it's gonna laugh

[Chorus]
Don't you tell me it's alright
When I can see the way you smile
Way you smile, way you smile
You’ve been crying all night long and
Hey, it's so good to know
That I got a friend in you
And you got a friend in me
A friend in me, friend in me
Yeah you got a friend in me and
Hey, it's so good to know
That I got a friend in you
And you got a friend in me
Friend in me, friend in me
Ain't it good to know now
[Verse 3]
Life got you down ‘cause you’re feeling kind of lonely?
Doing it on your own and that’s the best security
"All you gotta do is reach the top" that's what they said
Hit rock bottom, tryna climb back up
Back up a moment, and think about the past
When you dress like that, now you got yourself a new style
Ain’t nothing change when you look inside though
Can’t deny the dreams, the way they were
You make it happen when you take like it is gotta
Keep on moving, your fate won't wait
You gotta recognise it, you gotta live what you feel
Gotta do it how you like it, never stop for nothing
Short of what you love? Be a fool in love
A one shot deal and it's like that
So get with it quick before they take control of
Another piece of dream but the system, the system
The evil wisdom

[Verse 4]
Been down too long to rise up y'all
And give yourself away to the things you love
This little light of mine is gonna light this spliff
That's gonna change your mind, rewind
Remember way back when we touched the soul?
Singing what we liked cause we loved one another
And that could never change and we still love one another
So we sing together, all together now
[Chorus]
Don't you tell me it's alright
When I can see the way you smile
Way you smile, way you smile
You’ve been crying all night long and
Hey, it's so good to know
That I got a friend in you
And you got a friend in me
A friend in me, friend in me
Yeah you got a friend in me and
Hey-
