Friends Songtext
von Cliff Richard & The Shadows

There are some things I′ve been meaning to say
But until now couldn't find a way
To say all I want to would take far too long
But this wraps it up in the words of a song
Just like a bee without honey
Just like a bank without money
Whoever heard of a motor car
Without petrol going 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 brother
Just like a town without people
Think of a church with no steeple
Whoever 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
Whoever heard of a motor boat
Without water managing to float
Just like the sea with no fishing
And just like a well with no wishing
Can't have one without the other
That′s the way that we work brother
Just think of Arthur with Askey
Just think of Irish and Whiskey
It′s very plain to see we'll never ever be
Anything but friends, anything but friends
Anything but friends, anything but F-R-I-E-N-D-S
We′re good mates, yeah
