[Verse 1]
Reaching out to find a friend
In a world where the troubles never seem to mend
I'm reaching out for a friend
People walking in the sun
Lost in fear or lost in love
When the rain falls down
It falls on everyone

[Chorus]
I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

[Verse 2]
Drawing circles in the sand
Trying hard to understand
How the dreams we hold
They slip right through our hands
Another day in another life
I see it all with my own eyes
When it all comes around
The truth outweighs a lie

[Chorus]
I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend

[Bridge]
Some people talk like they know everything
Some act like they just don't believe
Others they try and make you feel ashamed
But most don't practice what they preach

[Verse 3]
Reaching out to find a friend
In a world where the troubles never seem to end
Oh here I go again

[Chorus]
I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
Yeah I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
I'm reaching out, I'm reaching out for a friend
I'm reaching out for a friend
