Lyrics Barbara Mandrell – That’s What Friends Are For

She was my friend when I needed a friend
He was the man who said our love would never end
When things went wrong, she’d tell us both to try again
That’s what friends are for, that’s what friends are for

And there were times when she was feeling down
One of us would always come around
And try to share some other happiness we found
That’s what friends are for, that’s what friends are for

I suppose I should have seen what was happening to me
And I guess I should have known, there wasn’t love enough for three
And now there’s only me

So I’m alone, like I never thought I’d be
I trusted her, just as far as I could see
And she stole his love away from me
If that’s what friends are for, I don’t need them anymore
