Let’s go back
to the beginning
Oh, when we both got caught
but it was me who was sinning
With us
it was never about winning
Like who was best
before our hair started thinning
Beautiful Friend
My true friend to the end
Making others believe
was better than any other
Carried me on your sleeve
when I hid from my own mother
Times sure were good
I won’t deny
Did what you could
to keep that fire in my eye
Beautiful Friend
Stay with me to the end
Beautiful Friend
For you I’d give again and again
It seems
now we live a separate life
In our wildest dreams
never thought about a husband or a wife
But it’s so good
being just a phone call away
Still doing what we should
Keeping those memories at bay
An airplane ride
can only spoil the sea’s tide
No river’s too wide
to keep my friend from my side
Beautiful Friend
Over and over again
You’ll always be my best of kin
Beautiful Friend
You helped me
through every storm
What I couldn’t then see
You made me warm without a scorn
Beautiful Friend
Beautiful Friend
I’ll always bend backwards
for my Beautiful Friend
I hope you know
I’m your friend too
Just in case it didn’t show
I hope it’s not too late to say, I Love You
Beautiful Friend
