People come and  People go  They take and they give  Build you up  Just to let you down  That's just the way it is  All I need is one friend  To get me through the day  One friend  That never goes away  Only one friend  To understand  And never let me down  I've been in love   I've been in pain  I'm a sinner  And a saint  No matter where I am  Or what I do  It's you I appreciate  All I need is one friend  To get me through the day  One friend  That never goes away   Only one friend  To understand  And never let me down  Can't nobody love you  More than you love yourself  And as long as I've got my one good friend  I don't need nobody else  All I need is one friend  To get me through the day  One friend  That never goes away   Only one friend  To understand  And never let me down
