SONG FOR A FRIEND

well you're magic he said 

but don't let it all go to your head 

cause i bet if you all had it all figured out 

then you'd never get out of bed 

well no doubt 

of all the things that I've read what he wrote me 

is now sounding like the man i was hoping 

to be 

I keep on keeping it real 

cause it keeps getting easier he'll see 

he's the reason that i'm laughing 

even if there's no one else 

he said you've got to love, yourself 

he said you shouldn't mumble when you speak 

but keep your tongue up in your cheek 

and if you stumble on to something better 

remember that it's humble that you seek 

you've got all the skill you need, 

individuality 

you've got something 

call it gumption 

call it anything you want 

because when you play the fool now 

you're only fooling everyone else 

you're learning to love, yourself 

yes you are... 

yes you...you...you 

and there's no price to pay 

when you give and what you take, 

that's why it's easy to thank you 

you...you 

you...you...you 

let's say take a break from our day 

and gettin back to the old garage 

because life's too short anyway 

but at least it's better than average 

as long as you got me 

and i got you 

you know we got a lot to go around 

i'll be your friend 

your other brother 

another love to come and comfort you 

and i'll keep reminding 

if it's the only thing i ever do 

i will always love you 

you...you...you 

you... 

It's true I love it's true 

It's you I love it's you I love it's you it's you I love 

It's true I love it's true I love it's true it's you I love 

It's you I love it's you I love it's you it's you I love you I do 

It's you I love 

It's you I love it's you I love it's you it's you I love 

It's true I love it's true I love it's true it's you I love 

It's you I love it's you I love it's you it's you I love you I do 

I'm in love in love in love 

I'm in love in love in love 

It's you I love its you 

It's you I love I love I love 

It's you I love I love I love 

It's you I love I love I love Oh... 

climb up over the top 

survey the state of the soul 

you've got to find out for yourself 

whether or not you're truly tryin 

why not give it a shot 

shake it take control 

inevitably wind up 

findin for yourself all the strengths 

you have inside still risin' 

X3 

climb up over the top 

survey the state of the soul 

you've got to find out for yourself 

whether or not you're truly tryin 

why not give it a shot 

shake it, take control 

and inevitably wind up 

findin for yourself all the strengths 

that you have inside of you
