Look, it's happened once again  It happens ev'ry now and then  Feeling the hurt and hatin' all the men  Ready to stop it all    That's when I need a friendly face  To see me through these lonely days  Just to put some sunshine in my place  Don't take too long, I need you    Here I am  I haven't gone that far away,   And since I am  The kind of friend you know  Would stay with you through all the pain  Never to leave you in the rain  Ready to listen to what you've been through  Your woes and blues and share each other's...     Points of view  We've been there once before  And kept our points of view  It doesn't really matter if they're never quite the same  We have our rules in diff'rent ways,   We play the games of diff'rent folks with diff'rent strokes  And keep our points of view.    See, the world seems bright again  It only darkens now and then  Most of the time there's just no telling when  Look up and see you've got me.    Here we are  We may have gone our diff'rent ways  But since we are  The kind of friends who'll always stay  No matter what the pain,   Learnin' to love that cap o' rain  Ready to say we're here to stay in ev'ry way  Although we've got our diff'rent    Points of view  We've been there once before  And kept our points of view  It doesn't really matter if they're never quite the same  We have our rules in diff'rent ways,   We play the games of diff'rent folks with diff'rent strokes  And never really change our    Points of view  We've been there once before  And kept our points of view  It doesn't really matter if they're never quite the same  We have our rules in diff'rent ways,   We play the games of diff'rent folks with diff'rent strokes  And keep our points of view.
