Thank You For Being A Friend

Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down a road and back again
Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off; won't you stand up and take a bow?

If you threw a party
And invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say

Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend

And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say

Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend

And when we fly and float away
Into the night, the Milky Way
You'll hear me call as we ascend
I'll say your name, and once again

Thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you
I wanna thank you
Oh thank you, thank you, thank you

Thank you, right now, for being a friend
I wanna tell you right now and tell you again
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend

I wanna thank you again and again and again
Again, again for being a friend
Wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
For being a friend
For being a friend

Thank you for being a friend
