"That's What Friends Do"

Описание: Written and performed - (c) 2017 Tamsen Mongelli DiBlasio

This song is written in honor of, and dedicated to, the compassionate rescue workers, generous donors, and tireless prayer warriors who continue to selflessly devote their time, energy, and resources as a result of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. May God richly bless you for the kindness you have shown to others in their time of need!

LYRICS: "THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS DO"

VERSE 1

WHEN THE WATERS RISE,
AND THE FEAR WELLS UP INSIDE,
I SEE YOUR TEARDROPS FALLING DOWN
WITH THE RAIN.

AND YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO,
YOU NEED SOMEONE TO SEE YOU THROUGH,
JUST HOLD ON TIGHT, DON’T LOSE THE FIGHT,
I’M ON MY WAY.

I’LL COMFORT YOU, I WILL CARRY YOU;
…THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS DO. . .

**CHORUS**

THERE IS NO DIVIDE AMONG US,
YOU’RE MY SISTER, YOU’RE MY BROTHER,
FOR THE CAUSE OF LOVE ALONE,
I’LL TAKE A STAND;

AND WITH OUR HEARTS UNITED,
ALL ACROSS THE LAND,
WE PRAY FOR YOU,
...AND LEND A HAND.

VERSE 2

WHEN THE STRONG WINDS BLOW,
AND THERE’S NOWHERE LEFT TO GO,
WHEN YOU HAVE NO STRENGTH TO STAND,
I’LL BE WITH YOU.

HOLD MY HAND AND DON’T LET GO
DON’T YOU KNOW YOU’RE NOT ALONE,
ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT, UNTIL THE LIGHT
COMES SHINING THROUGH?

WHAT YOU’D DO FOR ME, I’LL DO FOR YOU;
…THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS DO. [REPEAT CHORUS]

VERSE 3

AND WHEN EVERYTHING IS GONE,
AND THERE'S NO WHERE TO CALL HOME,
WHEN YOU NEED A HELPING HAND,
I’LL COME TO YOU;

'CAUSE YOU ALWAYS HAVE A FRIEND,
KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT THE END.
WE'LL MAKE A WAY, COME WHAT MAY,
WE'LL HELP YOU THROUGH.

THE LEAST I CAN DO IS GIVE HOPE TO YOU.
…THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS DO. [REPEAT CHORUS]

TAG:

WHEN THE WATERS RISE,
AND THE FEAR WELLS UP INSIDE,
I SEE YOUR TEARDROPS FALLING DOWN
WITH THE RAIN. . .
