Life has got you down
And there is nothing anyone can do to turn it around
You wanted to be free
But all you got was misery
'Cause life don't love you when your holding on
or after you've let go
So what's it matter who you are or what you do
Baby I know you want to end it all
But please before you do
CHORUS
"My friend I know what you've gone through
But Jesus died for you
So keep in mind
That although your heart is blue
Let it break in two
Then you will find
A Friend that lives in you"
Anything you want to know
Your Heavenly Father gives you things you need to help you grow
When you feel you can't go on no more
Wait for Him to open the door
And He'll be with you when you're riding high
Or even when you're down
So what's it matter what you gain or what you lose
Soon you'll learn that a gift from God is an offer you can't refuse
CHORUS x 1
'Cause life don't love you when you're holding on or after you've let go
So what's it matter who you are or what you do
Baby I know you want to end it all
But please before you do
CHORUS x 1
So keep in mind that although your heart is blue let it break in two
Then you will find a friend that lives in you
You'll find a friend that lives in you
OPEN YOUR HEART and you'll find a friend that lives in you
