Yanah - that's why (that's what friends are for) lyrics

rate me

the phone's been telling me your story

with a crying sound

it drilled into my ears when you said:

'it's hard to go on

can't make it on my own

but no-one needs to know

the worries in my head

you said you were about

to take an odd decision

'cause you didn't want your folks

to judge you for what you'd done

but words must be spoken

silence must be broken

someone needs to know

the troubles of your soul

but I hope you don't mind

that I talked to you

to open your eyes

so don't worry anymore

'cause that's why

that's what friends are for

that's why

you need a friend now

the other day you realized

there was no sense in hiding

reality would come and claim its price

you learned to live your life

the way that it should be

you know I'll be there for you

but you shouldn't be so kind

better live your life

and open your eyes

so don't worry anymore

'cause that's why

that's what friends are for

that's why

you need a friend now

(instrumental)

but I hope you don't mind

that I talked to you

to open your eyes

so don't worry anymore

'cause that's why

that's what friends are for

that's why

you need a friend now

that's why

you need a friend now

that's why
