"My Friend" lyrics - FRANKIE LAINE

Backing
(My friend my friend my)

My friend

Backing(My friend)

Is the king of all kings
And yet my friend walks beside me
My friend

Backing(My friend)

Rules the earth and the sun
And yet my friend stops to guide me
My friend takes my hand
Just when all appears in vain
And makes it plain
Through joy or pain

He'll remain
My friend

My friend tells me life is a road
And though it ends
At the bending
My friend
Tells then there's a road beyond this road
That is unending

Some day when I walk up the happy road that lies
Around the bend
Who will there be
To welcome me
My friend

Musical interlude and backing

Some day when I walk up the happy road that lies
Around the bend
Who will there be
To welcome me
My friend
