[Intro]
Hey, yeah
Oh-oh, mm

[Verse 1]
Midnight, soul tired in the burnout
Couldn't get back up from the knockdown
I was thinking it was over, but You didn’t let go
There were times when I lied straight to Your face
Turning back to the style of my old ways
But You only held me closer
And You didn't let go

[Chorus]
You've always been a friend to me
When everybody else walked away
You’ve always been a friend to me
I know for certain that You're here to stay
Even when I don't act right, it don't change Your love
I don't have to doubt it because
You've always been a friend to me
You've always been a friend to me
Good friend to me

[Verse 2]
Heart broke into a million pieces
So used to everybody leaving
You're the only one who knows me in the moments that count
Always there for me right when I need it
There were times when I just couldn’t believe it
Yeah, I know it took a minute
But I realize now
[Chorus]
You’ve always been a friend to me
When everybody else walked away
You've always been a friend to me
I know for certain that You’re here to stay (Mm)
Even when I don't act right, it don't change Your love (It don't change Your love)
I don’t have to doubt it because
You've always been a friend to me
You've always been a friend to me
A good friend to me

[Bridge]
In the good times and hard
I can still feel Your heart
Beating right next to mine
Where You've been the whole time

[Chorus]
You've always been a friend to me
When everybody else walked away (Everybody walks away)
You've always been a friend to me
I know for certain that You're here to stay (You will always stay, yeah)
Even when I don't act right, it don't change Your love
I don't have to doubt it because
You've always been a friend to me (Always been a friend to me)
You've always been a friend to me
A good friend to me (A good friend to me)
[Outro]
Good friend, good friend, good friend to me
Good friend, good friend, good friend to me (Yeah)
Good friend, good friend, good friend to me (It's always been You)
Good friend, good friend, good friend to me (Ooh-ooh, ooh, good friend to me, yeah)
Oh, ooh-woah, oh, ooh-woah, oh, woah
