A Friend Like You

Brian Wilson · Gettin' In Over My Head [2004]

As I look back at my life

As I move on through the year

Every time I reminisce

One thing rings out loud and clear



I'm so grateful a friend like you

You're the one

Who helps me make it through

All my dreams and all my hopes to satisfy



I was lost, what could I do?

None of my wishes ever came through

You were there

You were there for me



A friend like you

A friend like you

You simplify me

You stand beside me



A friend like you

A friend like you

You mystify me

You lullaby me



You have courage

You risk it all

Pick me up and every time I fall

You inspire me every day of my life



I was broken, so torn in two

You showed me kindness

Finally you broke through

All my problems

All my troubles just dissolve



A friend like you

A friend like you

A friend like you

A friend like you



A friend like you

A friend like you

A friend like you



A friend like you

A friend like you

You are patient

You are thoughtful



A friend like you

A friend like you

You're so tender

You're so precious



I was crushed against the wall

I turned to you, I felt so small

So unselfish

So warm and caring are you



You have courage

You risk it all

Pick me up and every time I fall

You inspire me every day of my life



As I look back at my life

As I move on through the years

Every time I reminisce

One thing rings out loud and clear
