Looking back through all the years
And the times that I've been through
A smile begins to warm my face
As my memories turn to you
'Cause it seems you've been a friend to me
And good friends are hard to find
You've been there through the good and bad
And I guess we're two of a kind
So when you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you need a friend
And when it seems that no one understands
Or even cares enough to see
That what you need is more than a kind regard
Or a distant empathy
And then I hope that you will find in me
You've got a friend that will be true
And in all that ever comes your way
I will always stand by you
So when you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
And when you're in a fix and you've nowhere to turn
Just remember that I'll always be there, yea-yea-yeah
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you, my friend
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you, my friend, yeah
I'll be there for you, my friend
I'll be there
And when it seems that no one understands
Or even cares enough to see
That what you need is more than a kind regard
Or a distant empathy
When you need a friend (when you need a friend)
When you need a friend (when you need a friend)
When you need a friend (when you need a friend)
I'll be there (I'll be there)
I'll be there for you, my friend
My friend
I'll be there for you, my friend
When you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you're looking round for someone to care
Just remember that I'll always be there
When you need a friend
