Be Your Friend Betty Wright

[Intro]
Hey you, I just wanna be your friend
Open your heart and let me in
'Cause I just wanna be your friend

[Verse 1]
Now, every man needs a woman as a friend he can just talk to
And I know that I can be that kind of woman to you
So I'm asking you to try and trust me
If you don't try, you'll never know what it can be
Other women let you down in the past
But I'm different, so I know as friends we'll last

[Chorus]
Hey you (you, you), I just wanna be your friend
(Be your friend, be your friend, be your friend)
Open your heart and let me in (let me in, let me in, let me in)
'Cause I just wanna be your friend (be your friend)

[Verse 2]
Now, don't you want someone to tell your secrets to
That you know won't tell (know won't tell)
And when (and when) they see you pushin' forward
They wish you well
Oh, a friend's love doesn't change with the wind
When they hurt you, they apologize and start again
So let's get started on this new relationship
Seal it now with a kiss upon my lips, oh!
