Time passes, the world changes
I'm still the same old kid
And your jokes still bring me laughter
As if you still were here
And it hurts when I smile
'Cause my heart still remembers
When you were around
'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there
So precious, small treasures
A time when truth was innocent
True friendship was all we were after
A place where kids could still be kids
And it hurts but I'm glad
'Cause at least I was blessed
To have you as my friend
'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there
You're my best friend, yes, there are no accidents
God has a plan for everyone
And He brought you in my life
To show me what a good friendship was
'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there
You were there
You were there
You were there
Because you were there
Because you were there
Because you were there
