Bring you home
It was clear from the beginning that I was going to be a musician.

Friendship Fact
A meta-analytic research study found that people with stronger social relationships enjoyed a 50% increased likelihood of survival than those with weaker social connections.

If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need any time of the day or night
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
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 here close and say
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
My motto in life is 'If you think it, you can do it'.

Knowing you can always count on me, for sure

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend

Things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees and
I'll be there for you

Come on and come to me now, and don't be ashamed to cry,
Let me see you through, 'cause I've seen the dark side too.
When the night falls on you, you don't know what to do,
Nothing you confess could make me love you less,
People think, because we're young, we aren't complex, but that's not true. We deal with life and love and broken hearts in the same way a woman a few years older might.

Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella...
I still think my whole career was accidental. I didn't pursue it. I feel like I'm cheating sometimes.

Essential Lyrics on "Stand By Me"
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me

I feel happy inside when I see your face
I hope you believe me
Because I speak sincerely
and I mean it when I tell you I need you
Transformation is my favorite game and in my experience, anger and frustration are the result of you not being authentic somewhere in your life or with someone in your life

Essential Lyrics on "Song for a Friend"
You say, you shouldn't mumble when you speak
But keep your tongue up in your cheek
And if you stumble on to something better
Remember that it's humble that you seek
You got all the skill you need
Individuality
You got something
They call it gumption
They call it anything you want
Because when you play the fool now
You're only fooling everyone else
You're learning to love yourself
The Beatles saved the world from boredom.

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
There is a light at the end of the tunnel... hopefully its not a freight train!

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again

Love will make it alright
Never, never listen to anybody who tries to discourage you.

Just call my name, and I'll be there. (I'll be there)

Sometimes when all your dreams may have seen better days
And you don't know how or why, but you've lost your way
Have no fear when your tears are fallin'

I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.

For you are the wind beneath my wings.

I've never known this, never before
You're the first to make up whenever we argue
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know you
You're so provocative, I'm so conservative
You're so adventurous, I'm so very cautious, combining
You think we would and we do,
But we do, but we do, but we do
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
I'm curious about life, period.

Friends can help you cut loose and have a good time, forgetting all your worries. Go ahead and make duck face selfies and stay up all night long talking. This 2013 song captures the essence of fun with a group of girlfriends.
Essential Lyrics on "Me and My Girls"
And we play our favorite songs
And we scream out all night long
Like ooh oh
When it's just me and my girls
And we dance like no one's watching
We crack up, booty poppin'
Like ooh oh
When it's just me and my girls
Watch me now.
There's rises and falls and ups and downs in all music.
— Tim McGraw35. "My Old Friend" by Tim McGraw
Album: Live Like You Were Dying
Release Year: 2004
This 2005 song reflects on the high value and soft sentiment we feel for old friends. Although it may have been years since you have connected with them, the shared love, laughter, and tears are right there on the edge of your memory.
Essential Lyrics on "My Old Friend"
My old friend, this song's for you
'Cause a few simple verses was the least that I could do
To tell the world that you were here
'Cause the love and the laughter
Will live on long after
All of the sadness and the tears
We'll meet again
My old friend...goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Never be ashamed of what you feel. You have the right to feel any emotion that you want, and to do what makes you happy. That's my life motto.

Essential Lyrics on "Gift Of A Friend"
Someone who knows when your lost and you're scared
There through the highs and the lows
Someone you can count on, someone who cares
Besides you where ever you go
You'll change inside
When you
Realize
The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
