Lyrics
VERSE 1: You can be my friend just the way you are. You don't need a fancy house or a fancy car.

You don't need to score 500 tickets from arcade games. All you need is to be yourself and let me do the same.

VERSE 2: You can be my friend just the way you are. You don't need to get straight A's or play air guitar.

You don't need to speak another language or get stuff for free. All you need is to be yourself and be a friend to me.

CHORUS: Yeah, we'll be friends. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll be friends! Yeah, we'll be friends, you can be friends with me!

VERSE 3: You can be my friend just the way you are. You don't need to live next door or travel really far.

You don't need to win a gold medal or be on the TV. All you need is to be yourself and be a friend to me.

(CHORUS TWICE)
