just a friend

I know what it means and what it doesn't

there isn't anything I haven't read

It's just a friend lending a hand to a friend

getting back on track from where it ended

I know how it started and the ups and downs

I know there isn't more or less to be wanted 

it is just a friend lending a hand to a friend 

supporting a need, that is all that it means

I know that I can depend on you 

even when I call out of the blue 

it is just a friend lending a hand to a friend 

that's where it starts and how it ends 

that is always the way that it turns out 

it is just a friend lending a hand to a friend
