She was my friend when I needed a friend   He was the man who said our love would never end   When things went wrong, she'd tell us both to try again   That's what friends are for, that's what friends are for      And there were times when she was feeling down   One of us would always come around   And try to share some other happiness we found   That's what friends are for, that's what friends are for      I suppose I should have seen what was happening to me   And I guess I should have known, there wasn't love enough for three   And now there's only me      So I'm alone, like I never thought I'd be   I trusted her, just as far as I could see   And she stole his love away from me   If that's what friends are for, I don't need them anymore
