Oh, even the best of friends give in sometimes to their darker side,
Put up a wall of stubborn pride, not willing to make amends,
Even the best of friends betray your trust in a moment of anger,
It’s so easy to point a finger – that’s when it all begins, yeah, with even the best of friends.
Even the best of friends don’t always see things eye to eye,
Won’t always understand just why, but that’s when they should try to bend,
Even the best of friends need to cling to their common ground, before the hurt starts coming down and they can’t turn around again, oh yeah.
Even the best of friends.
Oh, you and I, we paid so many dues,
I still remember those happy, hungry days, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Makes me cry ‘cause I can’t get through to you,
What did I do to make you turn away? – Oh.
Even the best of friends have to speak, though the truth might sting,
Though it’s hard, it’s the loving thing, the only way wounds will mend,
Even the best of friends need to learn to forgive each other,
Take all the faults that true love covers and just let them go in the wind, oh yeah.
Even the best of friends,
Even the best of friends,
Even the best of friends.
Even the best…best of friends,
Even the best of friends,
Oh,
Even the best,
Even the best…best of friends.
