Lyrics
When the spark is burning low
And I?ve lost the way to go
And it feels as though at best I?m passing through
When the shadows cover me
And my eyes just cannot see
I turn and then I know I always have a friend in you.
All across the running years
Through the laughter and the tears
When the mist is rising up around my view
When the sun is burning high
And there?s no blues in my sky
I look and then I know I always have a friend in you.
My boat burns in the harbour
And the mountains rise ahead
But looking through the smoke I see the truth of all you said
The pathway may be narrow
But it?s wide enough for two
And I know it sounds old-fashioned, but I walk it best with you.
Well the summers fall like rain
And I really can?t explain
And each winter tells me what I always knew
Just how fast this life goes by
Just the blinking of an eye
But in the end I know I will have had a friend in you.
My boat burns in the harbour
And the mountains rise ahead
But looking through the smoke I see the truth of all you said
The pathway may be narrow
But it?s wide enough for two
And I know it sounds old-fashioned, but I walk it best with you.
