I could be friends with you,
There's no better friend that a man can know,
I can be friends with you,
And I feel so special 'cause it's you I know.
I don't know the governor, even though I'm a resident,
Don't rub shoulders with the dignities, or shake hands with the President,
I know I can be with you; I don't have to wait in line,
You're the author and creator of all the world, and a personal friend of mine.
I can be friends with you,
There's no better friend that a man can know,
I can be friends with you,
And I feel so special 'cause it's you I know.
When I have a problem, I can always come to you,
Regardless of the situation, I know you'll know what to do,
You put your arm around, you speak so tenderly,
And I feel better, yeah, to know you care, and you took the time for me.
I can be friends with you,
There's no better friend that a man can know,
I can be friends with you,
And I feel so special 'cause it's you I know.
I'm not a special person; I've got nothing to offer you,
But you treat me like I'm the only one with...with whom you have to do,
You're closer than a brother, and you're with me every day,
I love you 'cause you first loved me, and I'm glad that I can say...
I can be friends with you,
There's no better friend that a man can know,
I can be friends with you,
And I feel so special 'cause it's you I know,
I can be friends with you,
There's no better friend that a man can know,
I can be friends with you,
And I feel so special 'cause it's you I know.
