lifeblood: songs: you've got a friend

when you're down and troubled
and you need some love and care
and nothing, no nothing is going right
close your eyes and think of me
and soon i will be there
to brighten up even your darkest night

you just call out my name
and you know wherever i am
i'll come running oh yeah
to see you again
winter, spring, summer or fall
all you've got to do is call
and i'll be there
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
you've got a friend

if the sky above you
should grow dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow
keep you head together
and call my name out loud
soon i'll be knocking upon your door

you just call out my name
and you know wherever i am
i'll come running oh yes i will now
to see you again
winter, spring, summer or fall
all you've got to do is call
and i'll be there
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

hey ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
when people can be so cold
oh they'll hurt you and desert you
well take your soul if you let them
oh yeah but don't you let them

you just call out my name
and you know wherever i am
i'll come running oh yes i will now
to see you again
don't you know about
winter, spring, summer or fall hey now
all you've got to do is call
and i'll be there
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(yes i will)
you've got a friend
you've got a friend
ain't it good to know you've got a friend
(you've got a friend)
ain't it good to know you've got a friend
(you've got a friend)
you've got a friend
oh yeah yeah
you've got a friend
