Lyrics What a Friend you Are - Mary Hopkin

What a friend you are
If I had a golden star
I'd pin it on you
For seein' it through
With me, with me
What a friend indeed
Why they all but had me treed
'Til you came along
You made me strong
And free, and free
When I needed you
You were there
Before I knew I needed you
You came through
When luck was bad
When bad luck was all I had
And no one cared
You were there
What a special friend
Just the kind who'd never bend
Or break away
You said you'd stay
And here you are, here you are
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la. la-la-la-la, la-la
When I needed you
You were there
Before I knew I needed you
You came through
When luck was bad
When bad luck was all I had
And no one cared
You were there
What a special friend
Just the kind who'd never bend
Or break away
You said you'd stay
And here you are, here you are
What a special friend you are
