Friends Songtext
von Gary Valenciano

Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
I can′t believe the hopes he's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through

But we′ll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
′Cause in our hearts, in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord′s the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it′s hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime′s not too long to live as friends

And with the faith and Love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you′ll live in
Is the strength that now you show


But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you′ve gone
′Cause our hearts, in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
′Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father′s hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord′s the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go (it′s hard to let you go)
In the Father′s hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
To live as friends


Though it′s hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime, a lifetime′s not too long
To live as friends (live as friends, live as friends)
No, no, no, that a lifetime's not too long (not too long)
To live as friends, as friends, as friends
