(Dionne)
And I never thought I’d feel this way
And as far as I’m concerned
I’m glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try to feel
The way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin’, keep shinin’
Knowin’ you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
That’s what friends are for

(Steve)
Well, you came and opened me
And now there’s so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you

(Elton)
Whoa, and then
For the times when we’re apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin’ from my heart
And then if you can remember, oh…

(Steve)
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
In good times, in bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
Oh, that’s what friends are for

(Gladys)
Whoa… oh… oh…
Keep smilin’, keep shinin’
Knowin’ you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
That’s what friends are for

(Elton)
Keep smilin’, keep shinin’
Knowin’ you can always count on me, oh, for sure
(Everyone)
‘Cause I tell you that’s what friends are for
(Elton)
For good times and for bad times
(everyone)
I’ll be on your side forever more
(Dionne)
That’s what friends are for (that’s what friends are for)

(Dionne)
Yeah
That’s what friends are for
Uhmmm, Uhmmmm
That’s what friends are for
Keep smilin’, keep shinin’
on me, oh, for sure (On me, for sure, On me, for sure)
That’s what friends are for
Keep smilin’, keep shinin’.
