Portrait Of A Friend - Personal Anthem lyrics

rate me

We all strive for perfection Even at the cost of ourselves We cannot buy perfection We just got to look inside ourselves We all need a friend A friend we can count on when we're in pain We all need a friend A friend to trust in when we've had a bad day A friend to guide us, stand beside us A friend to carry us when we are weak A friend to love us, hold and hug us A friend to remind us that we are unique And when we've looked everywhere else that friend must be ourself We all want confirmation That we are the best we can be Love gets lost in translation Why can't we see that we're free We all need a friend A friend to shelter us when we're in the rain We all need a friend A friend to trust in to show us the way A friend to guide us, stand beside us A friend to carry us when we are weak A friend to love us, hold and hug us A friend to remind us that we are unique And when we've looked everywhere else that friend must be ourself We all strive for acceptance Even at the cost of our health We cannot buy perfection We have got to look inside ourselves And when nothing else is left, what will last is ourself
