[Verse]
DAll I can say to the Gone that I Dlove
I am sorry for Aleavin so Dsoon
But if you trust in the moon
And the Gstars Dabove
I will be there Gagain I am Dsure
As for Gnow I'm Adown on my Dluck
And there's Gno one to Abring me aDround
So all I want you to Abe is a Dgood friend to me
For tomorrow I'll be Agone aDgain
DDid I mention to you that I Glove your Dface
It reminds me of a life that I missed
And the touch of your skin how it Gtakes me aDway
From the feelin of Gfeelin like Dthis
And when the Gcrowds have Ashuffled aDway
And the Gnights are Alonely and Dstrong
All I want you to Abe is a Dgood friend to me
For tomorrow I'll be Ggone aDgain
DOooooh Oooooh GOoooooh DOoooooh
Oooooh AOoooooh DOooooh
DAnd when I walk by your side I'm a Gbetter Dman
And I notice that Ayou're better Dtoo
And if the winds cover me down Gunder the Dsands
So fast, I will reGturn to Dyou
And if the Gdays are Atired & Dlong
And the Gsun is Abeatin' me Ddown
All I want you to Abe is a Dgood friend to me
For tomorrow I'll be Ggone aDgain
DAnd when the night takes a turn
And you're Glayin me Ddown
On your bed, Amade for a Dqueen
Remember my one and Gonly reDquest
This is all that I'll Aever Dneed
Cuz someGtimes I Afeel like a Dfool
For Gdoing these Athings that I Ddo
All I want you to be is a good friend to me
For tomorrow I'll be Ggone aDgain
All I want you to Abe is a Dgood friend to me
For tomorrow I'll be Ggone aDgain
DOooooh Oooooh GOoooooh DOoooooh
Oooooh AOoooooh DOooooh
