I believe the world's getting darker, but I see light in you When I feel the times getting hotter, I just thank God that I've got you Days and weeks go by, we don't talk, but if I need a shoulder to cry on I know you'd pick up the phone Ooh, a thousand miles apart and you still come through Ooh, know that I am there for you too You are my best friend, when life is grey You are my best friend, in every way They don't understand how a brother holds a different blood How you are a son to my mother and called my home your own Days and years go by, we don't talk, but if I need a shoulder to cry on I know you'd pick up the phone I know you'd pick up the phone Ooh, a thousand miles apart and you still come through Ooh, know that I am there for you too You are my best friend, when life is grey You are my best friend, in every way You are my best friend, when life is grey You are my best friend, in every way When I think of all we've lived, I can't have the smile on my face Remember how we used to be when we were still kids These are days that I miss You are my best friend, when life is grey You are my best friend, in every way You are my best friend, when life is grey You are my best friend, in every way A thousand miles apart and you still come through Know that I am there for you too
