You ve Been A Friend To Me

Oh, I’ll ne’er forget where e’er I roam
Where ever you may be
If ever I have had a friend
You have been that friend to me
My bark of life was tossing down
The troubled stream of time
When first I saw your smiling face
And youth was in its prime
Oh, I’ll ne’er forget where e’er I roam
Where ever you may be
If ever I have had a friend
You have been that friend to me
Misfortune nursed me as her child
And loved me fondly, too
I would have had a broken heart
Had it not been for you
Oh, I’ll ne’er forget where e’er I roam
Where ever you may be
If ever I have had a friend
You have been that friend to me
Now I look back upon the past
Across life’s troubled seas
And smile to think of all I’ve seen
You’ve been a friend to me
Oh, I’ll ne’er forget where e’er I roam
Where ever you may be
If ever I have had a friend
You have been that friend to me
Oh, I’ll ne’er forget where e’er I roam
Where ever you may be
If ever I have had a friend
You have been that friend to me
