Friends Songtext
von Cliff Richard & The Shadows

There are some things
I′ve been meaning to say
But until now couldn't find the word

To say all I want to would take far too long
But this raps it up in the words of a song

Just like a bee without honey
Just like a bank without money
Now who ever heard of a motor car
Without that goin′ very far

Just like a cup without coffee
Just like a kid without toffee
What are we without each other
Never try to part us from a

Just like a town without people
Think of a church with no steeple
Who ever heard of counting sheep
Without someone falling off to sleep


Friends, we've always been
And friends, we'll always stay
All for one and one for all
Things go better that way

Just like a tube with no tunnel
Just like a ship with no funnel
Who ever heard of a motor boat
Without water managing to float

Just like a sea with no fishin′
Just like a well with no wishin′
Can't have one without the other
That′s the way that we were brought up

Just think of Mother without asking
Just think of Irish and wasking
It's very plain to see
We′ll never ever be anything but friends

Anything but friends
Anything but friends
We're good mates.
