Friend

Long ago
 Before the moon was young
 And before the first love song
 Had ever been sung
 We both knew
 Beyond a shadow of doubt
 What loving somebody
 Was really all about
 When the sun goes down
 And you are not around
 I'm sailing on a prayer
 Don't you know
 I told everyone
 I even told the rising sun
 That I really need my friend
 When the sun goes down
 In this sleepy little town
 All the world keeps spinning
 And the planets turn around
 All alone
 Lonely as the stars
 Well,I just wanna be
 Wanna be where you are
 When the sun goes down
 And you are not around
 I'm sailing on a prayer
 Don't you know
 I told everyone
 I even told the rising sun
 That I really miss my friend
 When the sun goes down
 And you're not around
 I'm sailing on a prayer
 Don't you know
 I told everyone
 I even told the rising sun
 That I really need my friend
 When the sun goes down
 And you're not around
 I'm sailing on a prayer
 Don't you know
 I told everyone
 I even told the rising sun
 That I really miss my friend
