A jump in the dark, a fall without end
What would we do if we hadn't a friend
Frightened of life, a future to share
The courage to face the troubles out there

Cuddle your soul, give a shoulder to rest
Holding our hands, recognizing your best
Moments of love, understanding your youth
Giving you words of comfort and truth

Every time you make my day
Those words you say
Helps my way
We've got to speak from our hearts now
We gotta go from the start
If anything seems to fall down
Just stay with me

Nervous to ask, lending an ear
Talking of love and nothing to fear
Danger ahead, reaching for life
Vapors of thought bringing trouble and strife

Every time you make my day
Those words you say
Helps my way
We've got to speak from our hearts now
We gotta go from the start
If anything seems to fall down
Just stay with me

A friend is always right by your side
A friend has no fear, nothing to hide
A friend doesn't judge you
A friend doesn't blame
A friend just holds space
When you're going insane

Every time you (every time you) make my day
Those words you say (those words you say)
Helps my way
We've got to speak from our hearts now
We gotta go from the start
If anything seems to fall down
Just stay with me

Every time you (every time you) make my day
Those words you say (those words you say)
Helps my way (helps my way)
We've got to speak from our hearts now
(We've got to speak from our hearts)
We gotta go from the start (we gotta go from the start)
If anything seems to fall down
Just stay with me
