Another red letter day   So the pound has dropped and the children are creating   The other half ran away   Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber   Got a pain in the chest   Doctor's on strike what you need is a rest      It's not easy love but you've got friends you can trust   Friends will be friends   When you're in need of love they give you care and attention   Friends will be friends   When you're through with life and all hope is lost   Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the   End      Now it's a beautiful day   The postman delivered a letter from your lover   Only a phone call away   You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number   As a matter of fact   You're getting used to life without him in your way      It's so easy love cos you got friends you can trust   Friends will be friends   When you're in need of love they give you care and attention   Friends will be friends   When you're through with life and all hope is lost   Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the   End      It's so easy love cos you got friends you can trust   Friends will be friends   When you're in need of love they give you care and attention   Friends will be friends   When you're through with life and all hope is lost   Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the   End      Friends will be friends   When you're in need of love they give you care and attention   Friends will be friends   When you're through with life and all hope is lost   Hold out your hands cos right till the end-   Friends will be friends
