Friend of Mine

I haven't talked to you in a little while
We are a million miles away, friend of mine
You always seem to make me smile
We are a million miles away, but we're fine
But we're fine,
Friend of mine

Oh, I wish things would work out for the better
Ah, I often hope love could mend us together
Oh, I pray that happiness is a cloud away from us
Ah, I often dream that we're on the same bus
But we're fine,
Friend of mine

But we're fine,
Friend of mine
Friend of shine
There's a surreal sign
You and I will intertwine
The stars are aligned
We'll no longer be blind
You are a fantastic find
Life for us will be kind 
You and I will make it
We have faith I admit
Friend of mine,
We'll be fine…
We'll be fine...

I haven't talked to you in quite a long, long time now
We are a million miles away, oh friend of mine
Sweat on my brow, I have learned to get by somehow 
We are a million miles away, but we'll do fine

Oh, I wish things would work out for the better
Ah, I often hope love could mend us together
Oh, I pray that happiness is a cloud away from us
Ah, I often dream that we're on the same bus
But we're fine,
Friend of mine

But we're fine,
Friend of mine
Friend of shine
There's a surreal sign
You and I will intertwine
The stars are aligned
We'll no longer be blind
You are a fantastic find
Life for us will be kind 
You and I will make it
We have faith I admit
Friend of mine,
We'll be fine…
We'll be fine...

Friend of mine, mine, mine
You're looking fine, fine, fine
I hope you're well in all you do
Wish I can tell you how I'm feeling too
There's too much I have gone through
Yet, so much I don't want to 
And that'll remain oh so true
I pray you'll still be my friend till this day
I pray your day is a day of sunshine today
Friend of mine, mine, shine, shine
We'll be fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
