Friends Lyrics - Glen Campbell

Friends are never earned they're a gift from the loving God 

And they're precious beyond human evaluation 

But you dare not take them for granted or they'll lift away like a smoke 

And the warmth of their caring will vanish into the chill of the endless nights 

Most of my friends are unknowns they probably won't even rate an obituary 

Unless they live and die in a small town 

Somewhere where nothing much ever happens 

But a few of my friends are big people 

They'd made the word ring with laughter down to this string of court 

They're famous sensitive talented and their names are household words 

And yet they're no more precious in God's eyes or in mine 

Than those wonderful nobodys who live and die in small towns 

Who is your friend he's someone who warms you with a nod 

Or with an unspoken word in hard times when you're hurting beyond words 

Who is your friend he's someone who holds you to her breast 

And sighs softly into your hair when no other medicine could possibly stop the pain 

A friend is someone who clings his glass against yours 

Or answers the phone at three in the morning when you're lost 

And with a few words of encouragement and concern 

Makes you realize that you're not really lost at all 

Friends come in both sexes in all shapes and sizes 

The most imprtant thing they have in common is their ability 

To share with you your most sky splitting joys 

Or your deepest most spelling ol' some sorrows for they're all your friends
