"A Friend In Need"
(Stewart)

How many times did you ever get to the edge and say
There's no turning back no, no, no, there ain't no other way.
But in the depths of confusion, when the chips are really down,
There's a tap on your shoulder baby and you've got to turn around.

Here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed.
No explanations needed, no questionnaire
Just take a look behind you baby, I'll be standing...

I know a man from the north, but his philosophy is a farce.
He said a friend in need is just a pain in the arse.
He's dealing with his friendships like he's dealing with his cards
And when the deal turns sour well he's disappearing fast.

Here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed.
No explanations needed, no questionnaire
Just take a look behind you baby, I'll be standing...

Oooh but you're thinking where upon this speck of dust
Can I find a soul, a soul that I can trust.
These little minds around me they make everything so small.
Molehills out of mountains and they don't see the beauty of it all.

Nothing can really harm you but your own loss of face.
It's too tough to handle and you don't wanna finish the race.
But there's an answer to the problem like the sun behind the rain
Just take a look around you and you'll be smiling again.

Here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed.
No explanations needed, no, no questionnaire
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there...

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed.
No explanation needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire.
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there.

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed.
No explanations needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire.
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there.

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed.
No explanations needed, no questionnaire, no questionnaire.
Take a look around you baby, who's standing there, who's standing there.

Here is a friend, here is a friend, for a friend in need.
And a friend in need is a friend indeed, friend indeed.
